Calling all Christmas Elves! TES has been asked to provide entertainment for the families picking up their “Angel” presents tomorrow, Saturday, December 16 at the old Dillard’s store at Mall of the Mainland. We are to sing at 10:00-10:30. Possibly the ukulele group will play also. All children, parents, choir and former choir members are invited to join in the fun and sing carols. I will have Santa Hats and music. Please come give a gift of your time to support families who have lost so much this year.-Laura Hyatt, Music Director
