SANTA HELPS MWFA CELEBRATE HOLIDAYS<br />
By Nancy Rich<br />
Part of the industry’s Holiday tradition, for many, is<br />
attending the MWFA Holiday party. The MWFA wanted to<br />
be sure to take the opportunity to visit with industry peers<br />
and collect Toys for Tots. The attendees donated a great<br />
deal of toys as well as almost $2,000 in cash for Toys for<br />
Tots. It’s very gratifying to see the attendees arriving with<br />
armloads of toys!<br />
Santa was present checking his naughty or nice<br />
list. He couldn’t find any on the naughty list, so he<br />
stayed and enjoyed visiting and taking photos with the<br />
guests. Several guests also won raffle prizes donated<br />
by members and the MWFA. Who doesn’t like an extra<br />
present at the holidays! All this added to music, cocktails<br />
and appetizers made for a festive evening. We thank<br />
everyone for an awesome year and look forward to sharing<br />
another great year with our members and industry.<br />
