         *JLab Children Invited to Winter Wonderland Party Dec. 11***

The Jefferson Lab Activities Group is hosting a children's Winter 
Wonderland Holiday Party on Saturday, Dec. 11 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. in 
the CEBAF Center lobby. All children of JLab employees, contractors and 
users are invited. Volunteers are needed to help with refreshments, 
games and crafts, and as Santa's Helpers.

Santa Claus plans to drop in on the party, and will be available to talk 
with and be photographed with the children. Youngsters may take part in 
games and craft activities. Light snacks and drinks will be provided. 
All children must be accompanied by an adult. Each family is asked to 
bring a new, unopened toy donation for the Toys For Tots toy drive.

*Volunteers Needed to Help With Children's Party***

A number of volunteers are needed to help with the children's holiday 
party, mostly as crafts-table and game helpers. All crafts and supplies 
will be provided. Volunteers are needed to assist younger children with 
basic cutting, gluing or tying. Volunteers are also needed for the snack 
area and as Santa's Helpers. Sign up by logging on to this webpage:

*Toys For Tots Toy Drive Runs Through Dec. 10*
JLab is participating in the U.S. Marine Corps' annual Toys For Tots toy 
drive. Bring in your donation of new, unopened toys for children ages 
1-12 and deposit them in the collection boxes. Local Marines will pick 
up the toys and distribute them to children in need. Marked drop boxes 
are located near the main entrances of CEBAF Center, VARC, ARC, Test Lab 
and the MCC through Friday Dec. 10. For information about the Toys For 
Tots program, visit: www.toysfortots.org <http://www.toysfortots.org>

*Get Festive: Ready, Set, Hang Those Decorations!

The JAG is also sponsoring a Holiday Office Door/Cubicle Decorating 
Contest. Prizes will be awarded for the Best Decorated, Most Original 
Decoration, and the Silliest. All employees, users and contractors with 
an office or cubicle at JLab may enter the contest (individuals and 
groups). To enter, you must e-mail JAG Chair Bridget Paul by 5 p.m. 
Wednesday, Dec. 15. Include your name(s), building number and 
office/cube location. Judging will take place Dec. 17. Winning entries 
will be announced on Monday, Dec. 20. Decorations may go up as early as 
Dec. 1 and should be taken down by Jan. 5, 2011. Decorating materials 
should be fire resistant and only UL-approved lighting/electronics may 
be used. Don't use opened food items in your decorations. For instance, 
wrapped candy canes are ok; unwrapped cookies are not.

*Holiday Shopping: JAG Offers JLab-Logo Merchandise Through On-Line Store*

The Jefferson Lab Activities Group provides the lab community with the 
opportunity to purchase a variety of merchandise with the JLab logo on 
it -- directly from the JAG webpage.

Items may be ordered individually or in larger quantities, and include 
many different products: short and long-sleeved shirts, cardigans, 
T-shirts, sweatshirts, a variety of hats and a soft-sided bag. The JLab 
logo can be printed in color on the items ordered.

There is a two-week turn around on most orders. Orders shipped to 
addresses in Virginia that require one-day shipping must be placed no 
later than Dec. 13 in order to have it ready to ship by Dec. 23. Orders 
being shipped to more distant location, like California, need to allow 
up to five working days for shipment, requiring orders to be placed no 
later than Dec. 6.

Routine orders are delivered by UPS ground shipment. Credit cards may be 
used to place orders on the webpage and over the phone. Checks may be 
also used for payment, but must be mailed and received or delivered to 
the vendor prior to shipping.

"The holidays will be here in the blink of an eye. Plan on being part of 
the fun and festivities," urge JAG committee members Dave Abbott and 
Bridget Paul. "Mark your calendars. Look for the JAG fliers in your work 
areas, visit the JAG webpage or contact a committee member for more 
information. Please bring in a Toys For Tots donation or support a 
charity of your choice to help those in our community who are having a 
difficult time."
