Bring a wrapped gift valued at $5 or less, or do the Wellfleet thing and bring a recycled item such as those earrings you never wear, something humorous or witty, or something to inspire Democratic action! With the gifts displayed on a table, each person will draw a number from a hat to determine the swap order. If you drew #1, you’ll be the first to select a gift and open it.  The person who drew #2 chooses a gift andeither unwraps it or swaps it for a gift already unwrapped by someone else. Etc. until all gifts are unwrapped, claimed or traded! Terry Gips will officiate and mediate as needed!

FOOD PANTRY DONATIONS There will also be a basket for your food or cash donation to support Wellfleet families this holiday season. Checks can be made out to the Wellfleet Food Pantry or the Mustard Seed Kitchen.
