DID YOU know?
- The Angel Tree starts out covered with paper bells and balls that specify a boy or girl of a given age range and provides some gift suggestions, such as a toy or clothing.
- A donor will take a bell or ball, go shopping for an appropriate gift and place it unwrapped under the tree.
- The donor then puts his or her name on a paper angel that goes on the tree.
- The Angel Tree is donated by Wood’s Christmas Trees, who have a lot by the Milne Court Petro Canada in New Minas, and County Fair Mall staff members set up the tree.
- If the Carters aren’t able to be there, donors can leave gifts at the lotto booth just outside the NSLC store.
