| Letters to Santa… This year Santa is asking that parents help their children write a letter to him. Please include the childs name, age, and if he has been naughty or nice! All letters need to be in by Nov. 20, 03 Santa plans on having all letters answered and brought to the Christmas party. These letters would be a great addition to your Childs LIFE BOOK! Submit children's letter to Santa’s Helper 55 Clingstone Circle, Newnan Ga. 30265. He is also asking for volunteers to help answer the mail. If you are interested in being Santa’s little helper please contact Danna Keith@ 770-304-9010. Be as creative as possible, tell the kids about the weather and how toy making is going and all the games the reindeer have been playing etc… |

| The parade will start @ the corner of Temple and Jackson Streets @ 3:30 pm and end over by Newnan High School. The Foster Parents Association will be participating in this event. Our goal is to raise public awareness about the counties need for more foster parents and local support. We hope that the association will grow in both numbers and strength so we can all pool our resources to better help the children of our county. We need approximately 6 volunteers to walk in the parade holding a banner and passing out flyers. So please show your support by calling Lani Benefield @ XXXXXX and let her know what you can do. |
