This Week at the Square 12/04

Trojan Legion is hosting the Secret Santa Boutique again this year! The shop is open Tuesday, December 5 through Friday, December 8 from 7:45 am - 3:30 pm in the Trojan Legion Room. Their goal is to give each of our elementary students a chance to come in and pick out special, budget friendly items to give to their loved ones. This shop serves several purposes -- the children learn how to budget their money, and it allows them to experience the joy of GIVING. In order to make this shop a success, Trojan Legion needs YOU! They would love to have as many hands on deck as possible. Please consider signing up here for a few shifts and volunteer at the Secret Santa Boutique!
