'Tis better to give than receive... As andamp;lt;a href=andamp;quot;http://www.kxnet.com/t/christmasandamp;quot; class=andamp;quot;kxInlineLinkandamp;quot;andamp;gt;Christmasandamp;lt;/aandamp;gt; approaches, not all families will be able to have gifts under the tree...but a few more will thanks to the Plum Valley andamp;lt;a href=andamp;quot;http://www.kxnet.com/t/lions-clubandamp;quot; class=andamp;quot;kxInlineLinkandamp;quot;andamp;gt;Lions clubandamp;lt;/aandamp;gt;. Last night it was off to the mall to bring some Christmas cheer to families in need. andamp;lt;a href=andamp;quot;http://www.kxnet.com/t/perry-olsonandamp;quot; class=andamp;quot;kxInlineLinkandamp;quot;andamp;gt;Perry Olsonandamp;lt;/aandamp;gt; shows us what they were up to. andamp;quot;Let's meet together at the cash registers at 7:30.andamp;quot; And with that...they were off... andamp;quot;See you in a half hour!andamp;quot; Playing the role of Santa for two families who were not going to be able to put presents under the tree this year... andamp;quot;Fun to see what everyone comes together with and it is nice to do something for a family who needs it...andamp;quot; Leisa was in search of goods for an 11-year-old girl... andamp;quot;I think I'll head to the clothing section...andamp;quot; Five other Plum Valley Lions members were on a mission to track down the perfect gifts as well... andamp;quot;You have got to shake it up...my grandson has one of these. That is perfect! That boy needs one of those!andamp;quot; The money to pay for this seasonal shopping spree comes from fundraisers like the Garlic and Grape festival...some well used funds...for some well deserved fun! andamp;quot;OK, we are going to the toy section...andamp;quot; andamp;quot;I need something with horses...it says she likes horses and likes to draw...andamp;quot; After a little searching...Leisa had what she was after...and so did everyone else...now...time for the unknown! andamp;quot;That is the surprise. When we get up there we will see what the grand total is.andamp;quot; All six members piled through one check-out lane...the total steadily rising...and predictions coming quickly... andamp;quot;$600 maybe!andamp;quot; Well not quite...but $494.67. A big bill sure to bring big smiles in a few short weeks. andamp;quot;It was a success and I'm sure it will make someone's Christmas morning happy!andamp;quot; Perry Olson, KX News. After shopping, it was off to a member's house to wrap up the gifts and today they were delivered to Community Action ready to take up a little real estate under a tree very soon. « Less
