The "B" Tree

Kelly and Jeff Johnson are excited to be donating a 6'6" tree to the Festival of Trees. This is an annual fundraiser for Primary Children's Medical Center, where their daughter Bridgette had both of her surgeries due to her Hirschsprung's disease. Last year the event raised $1,495,840.74. Every penny of that money went directly to families that needed assistance, not to administrative costs.

In honor of baby Bridgette, Kelly and Jeff are looking for anyone and everyone that would like to help. They're calling their entry The "B" Tree in honor of Baby Bridgette and her surgeon, Dr. Black. They are decorating the tree in "B" words (bells, bows, birds, berries) and trying to fill the space below with "B" toys (bears, board games, baby dolls, etc.)

They could use help raising funds, with toy donations, and with physical labor. You can find more information on a website Kelly made called The "B" Tree.

The tree set up will be on Nov. 30.

The silent auction is held on Dec. 1.

Public viewing will be Dec. 2-5.

We would like to encourage any Relief Society members that can help to contact Kelly Johnson. This is a great opportunity for us to serve.

Super Saturday Has Come and Gone

Our Super Saturday was a huge success. There were many projects completed. There were a few projects uncompleted (like mine). We had a great lunch. And most importantly we got to share each other's company. Thank you so much to everyone who helped out: Malisalee and Amy for organizing it all. We have a tremendous enrichment board whose help we couldn't have gone without: Lydia, Tina, Cheryl, Shauni, Jody, Mindy, Cyntia, and everyone who helped with the food and other preparations. We all had a great time.
