Trees are not yet up, we will update when they are. Plan on having ornaments up by Nov 22nd, if not sooner.
What is the holiday drive? MVFD works with our schools in the area to help our local kids get items they need to have a happier holiday.
The “giving trees” are at the firehouse and Dutch Corner.
How’s it work? You pick up an ornament (or a few), purchase the items, and return them unwrapped WITH the code on the ornament to the firehouse by December 8th.
For example, if your ornament says medium blue shirt, you may purchase just one shirt or multiple shirts. It’s up to you!
As we get closer to our deadline and if we still have a lot of ornaments left, we will be posting online ornaments to be “adopted”: HOW ONLINE ORNAMENTS WORK: 1. We will post “ornaments” online that you can claim. 2. Once you say you will purchase the item it is yours and will be removed from our list. 3. You purchase the item(s) and drop it off, unwrapped, at MVFD firehouse. YOU MUST INCLUDE THE CODE THAT IS GIVEN WITH YOUR ITEM(S). Without the code we will not know which child it is meant for. You can write the code on a piece of paper and add it in the bag with the item(s). 5. All items need to be dropped off at the firehouse by Dec 8th, 3209 Main St., Manchester.
THANK YOU!!! This event has been a success for the past 21 years thanks to our generous community and we could not do it without your help. Let’s make year 22 the best yet!! |
