October Party at St. Francis

11/2/2013

1 Comment

 
Our fall birthday party at the St Francis shelter was a huge success!  We celebrated the birthdays of 16 yr. old Austin, 17 yr. old Michael, 12 yr. old Matthew, and 1 yr. old Angel. The children had a wonderful time.

Thank you so much to all the volunteers that came to help: 
Mindy, Cari, Shawnette, the West Salem Enhance Rotary students, Abigail from Central high, and the Ketcham family (who also brought gifts). A special thank you to the Assistance League of Salem for donating the goody bags and the fun craft the kids did. A big thank you also to Salvador's Bakery for donating an amazing cake again!

October Party at S.O.S.

October's Party at SOS was incredible. We celebrated a bundle of birthdays, six children, which is the most we have had in one month! 

A special THANK YOU to the Youth Exchange of Keizer Rotary (Jane and Kevin Mulholland, Dave Weaver, Joe and Shelly Egli, Jeff Kuhns, and Joe's two kids - Maddi and Noah), as well as a staff member friend (Lori Fowler) from Whiteaker Middle School. Joe led a funny game that none of had heard of before, and then we did a really silly - but fun - "find your farm animal group without talking" game. Thank you also to The Willamette students from Tokyo University who had a fun mummy game to play as well as a "rocks/paper/scissors Congo line" game. It was a blast! Lori helped the kids with the craft, decorating little Halloween boxes, and filling them with candy. Then came the cake and ice cream, and presents for 6 kids! It was great! The children and families were delighted and so thankful! Thanks everyone, we couldn't do it without you.
