Our Community Gift Exchange is taking place on December 11th! Attendees will bring a gift and place it in a pile. Then, everyone will draw a number and choose their gift from the pile in that order. The gift value limit is set to $20. The exchange will take place on December 11th at 5:30pm. We would prefer you sign up ahead of time, so we know how many people to expect. This is an adult-only event.
