ADOPT A FAMILY 2010

We are thrilled this year to be adopting four gentleman from Progress Industries to shower with gifts and love this Christmas. Carol shared that these four men would NOT receive gifts from anyone else, so we are truly their family this year!

To ensure we get everything purchased for the men, please contact the "captain" listed with each "adopted person" below. We need to ensure we get each item covered and decided to name a "captain" per person to coordinate each one.

Also, if you'd like to buy "stocking stuffer" type things, please purchase four of each so we can ensure each person gets the same thing as the next person.

We can purchase additional things for these men (let's say you are buying a stocking hat and you see a scarf that would go with it, that works), but we do need to try and stay as close to the list as possible to keep it "even". We will be meeting with these men and watching them open the gifts, so we want to make sure it is as close to "even" as possible so no one feels slighted.
