Continuously serving Kosciusko County since 1854
The calendar reads the first days of October and that brings thoughts about Thanksgiving and Christmas preparations.
This year, the Kosciusko County Extension Homemakers Holiday Program committee has decided to help with “Wrapping Up Christmas.”
The program will start at 9 a.m. with a break for lunch and the remainder of the program to begin at 1 p.m. Nov. 5 in the Home and Family Arts Building on the Kosciusko County Fairgrounds. The cost is $12 and registration is due by Oct. 22.
Check-in and light refreshments will start at 9 a.m., compliments of the Tippecanoe Township and Atwood Home Study. At 9:30 a.m., participants will take their seats and learn ways to wrap up Christmas presents.
The organizers have planned a contest for everyone to participate in as teams. Stocking stuffer ideas and more fun things will happen before lunch is provided by the Chit Chat Ladies.
The program continues at 1 p.m. where participants will find themselves heading to the craft tables and making one of three items: a repurposed sweater Christmas tree, gift gags or ornament collection of Santa/elf, ribbon tree and a glitter foam tree.
The holiday program is open to anyone, including Kosciusko County Extension Homemakers and all their friends.
Participants are asked to choose one of the three crafts. Checks should be made payable to Kosciusko County Extension Homemakers and mailed to Marvene Johnson, 3295 W. CR 200S, Warsaw, IN 46580. For further information or answers to questions, call 574-453-1606.
