A message from my son:
As the season of giving comes to a close, I'd like to extend my deepest gratitude to each and every one of you who made a difference!!
Our Elf Squad has triumphantly raised over $7,600 in monetary donations and collected thousands of non-perishable items for those in need! !!
First and foremost, I want to express my heartfelt appreciation to the incredible residents of Palomaglade who contributed to our dazzling light show. Your collective efforts in decorating, programming, and maintaining the display have created a winter wonderland that brings joy to all who visit. Your tireless work putting up lights, cutting trees, programming our songs, running cables, and keeping everything running smoothly is truly the backbone of our display, and I'm grateful to be a part of such an amazing community!
A special thank you to the jolly Santa and the wonderful team at Noran Shine Photography for creating unforgettable memories for our children with their wonderful photos.
I'd also like to extend my gratitude to the brave Members of the 501st who took time out of their schedules to visit us, bringing a touch of magic to our holiday experience!
To the selfless volunteers who dedicated their time to our Elf Squad, your kindness and generosity have made a significant impact on our community. Whether you signed up for one day or several, your efforts are truly appreciated!
And to every single person who donated, your kindness and generosity are the driving forces behind our food drive, enabling us to give back to our community year after year.
With warmest holiday wishes, Colton Cook
