*JAG Reminds Lab Community of Children's Holiday Party, Toys for Tots 
Drive, Decorating Contest*

"The holidays will be here in the blink of an eye. Plan on being part of 
the fun and festivities planned for Jefferson Lab staff, users, family 
members and subcontractors," urges Jefferson Activities Group Chair 
Bridget Paul.  "The JAG committee wishes everyone at the lab a happy and 
safe holiday season."

*Lab Youth Invited to Children's Holiday Party Saturday, Dec. 10*
The Jefferson Activities Group is hosting a Children's Holiday Party on 
Saturday, Dec. 10 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the CEBAF Center lobby. All 
children of Jefferson Lab employees, contractors and users are invited.
Santa Claus plans to drop by, and will be available to talk with and be 
photographed with the children.
A visit is also planned by JAG Dog Training Club member, Dan Young, 
Physics Division, and his two Samoyeds, Nikko and Tally (aka Santa's 
snow dogs).
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, unwrapped toy donation for Toys For 
Tots.

*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 to assist younger 
children with basic cutting, gluing or tying. All crafts and supplies 
will be provided. Volunteers are also needed for the snack area and as 
Santa's Helpers. Sign up now online:

*Toys For Tots Toy Drive Ends Saturday at Noon*
As in years' past, JLab is participating in the U.S. Marine Corps' 
annual Toys For Tots toy drive. Bring in your donation of new, unwrapped 
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.
The deadline for bringing in donations is noon Saturday, Dec. 10. A Toys 
For Tots representative will pick up the donations Saturday afternoon. 
Marked drop boxes are located near the main entrances of CEBAF Center, 
VARC, ARC, Test Lab and the MCC. For information about the Toys for Tots 
program, visit: www.toysfortots.org.

*Ready, Set, Hang Those Decorations!*
JAG is also sponsoring a Holiday Office Door/Cubicle Decorating Contest. 
Prizes will be awarded for the Best Decorated, Most Original, 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 email JAG Chair Bridget Paul at bpaul at jlab.org by 5 
p.m. Monday, Dec. 12. Include your name(s), building number and 
office/cube location. Judging will take place Dec. 15 and 16. Winning 
entries will be announced Monday, Dec. 19.
Decorations should be taken down by Jan. 3, 2012. 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.
