It is that time of the year once again. We are in the "Monkey Business". Thank you to the fifth graders for designing and sewing these lovable monkeys. And a special thank you to their teacher for involving her class in this wonderful community service project.
This year we have 50 monkeys which will be paired with a matching child-sized hat. These cuddly animals will find their way to the cancer wings of local hospitals to be given to children going through cancer treatments, hoping to make put a smile on their faces.
We have a date for our Sock Monkey Event. Saturday, September 13, 12-2 in the afternoon at the South Huntington Public Library. The program for the day includes:
Now we need you to help make the child-sized hats that will compliment the sock monkey, so won't you please adopt a monkey.
You may send your finished hat to me, Betty Jayne Volpe. (email me for home address - bjvolpe@optonline.net) Or better yet - come join the fun on the 13th and deliver your hat then.
