The groups are collecting a quantity of 10 of any item (e.g., gift cards, baked items individually wrapped, nuts, holiday ornaments) and ask that they be delivered to the high school office by Dec. 15.
The packages will be assembled and delivered on the morning of Dec. 16 in the J.J. Room. Any parents are welcome to join the process at 8 a.m. For more information, contact Lori Mascarenas at 559.260.3135 or by e-mail.
