[deborah magaldi]

*JLab Children Invited to Children's Holiday Party*
The Jefferson Lab Activities Group is hosting the Children's Holiday 
Party this Saturday, Dec. 8, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the CEBAF Center 
lobby. All children of JLab employees, contractors and users are 
invited. Each family is asked to bring a new, unopened toy donation for 
Toys For Tots.

Santa Claus plans to drop by with JAG Dog Training Club member, Dan 
Young, Physics Division, and his two Samoyeds, Nikko and Tally, for 
photographs 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.

*Volunteers Needed to Help With Children's Party*
Individuals are needed to fill 27 one-hour volunteer spots 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. Please sign 
up today.

Adults and older children planning to attend the party are asked to 
consider signing up to help for one hour during the party. Sign up now 
online at: http://www.jlab.org/intralab/committees/jag/

*Toys For Tots Toy Drive Underway*
As in years' past, the lab 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 marked collection 
boxes. The deadline for bringing in donations is noon Saturday. Local 
Marines will pick up the toys at the Children's Party and distribute 
them to children in need.

Marked drop boxes will be available through Friday evening near the main 
entrances of CEBAF Center, Bldg.89, SSC, ARC and TED Buildings.  For 
more 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 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 email JAG Chair Bridget Paul at bpaul at jlab.org by 5 p.m. 
Dec. 14. Include your name(s), building number and office/cube location. 
Judging will take place Dec. 17 and 18. Winning entries will be 
announced Wednesday, Dec. 19.

Decorations may go up as early as Dec. 3 and should be taken down by 
Jan. 4, 2013. 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.

"The holidays will be here in the blink of an eye. Plan on being part of 
the fun and festivities," urges JAG Chair Bridget Paul. "Mark your 
calendars. Look for the JAG fliers in your work areas, visit our webpage 
or contact a JAG 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."
