    A local companys

    division manager has

    asked the Strathroy -

    Caradoc Lions to

    assemble enough gift

    baskets to provide for

    his customers and staff

    his season.

    Lion Mariette led the

    way by checking out a

    multitude of suppliers

    atalogues, and ordered

    ufficient quantities of

    each item.

    Over the past several

    weeks boxes have been

    arriving at Butchs

    Bailiwick for temporary

    storage.

    The list was made, and it

    was checked more than

    twice, had to make sure

    what was nifty and nice,

    cause Santa Claus is

    coming to town - for

    many customers.

    What a gas a lot of fo

    are going to have in th

    next few weeks.

    Gift Basket Construction Zone!An enthusiastic crew of assembly line workers put together 72 thousand

    baskets in only two evenings![Well, it sure looked like that many.]

    Almost everyone chipped in helping hands to help get the goods gathered and baskets assembled!
