Gift Wrappers Needed
The Community Service Committee is seeking volunteers to wrap gifts during Food Pantries of the Capital District's annual Gift Wrapping Fundraiser at the Book House in Stuyvesant Plaza.
Volunteers will wrap gifts for Book House customers. All customer donations received for the wrapping will benefit the Food Pantries of the Capital District.
Wrapping volunteers work in pairs for two-hour shifts, so it's a great activity to do with a friend. The Woman’s Club will wrap books on Thursday, Dec. 12, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Saturday, Dec. 21 from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. If you cannot do either of these days, sign up for a day of your choice.

One Last Holiday Blast
2sDay in the Parlor
Jan. 7 -- 6:30 p.m.
Don't miss our annual Worst Gift/Ugly Sweater party. If this is your first time, get ready for a lot of laughs.
Bring a wrapped gift that you can't wait to get rid of -- you know the one -- another pair of cat socks, a pair of earrings you couldn't be paid to wear, the gift that screams, "Do they even know me?" You get the picture.
While you're at it, put on that holiday sweater you got on sale five years ago. It's still good!
A nip or a nosh to share, please.
Get ready for a good time! Remember: You don't have to be a WCA member to join us in the fun! There is always room for one more around the tree.
Cheryl incorporates music (crystal bowls, harmonium, flute) into her classes where individuals practice safely at their own level. Please bring a yoga mat and use the side door entrance. This class is by donation. Contact Cheryl for more information.
