Christmas Party

This weekend we had the Sea Mar Clinic's Holiday Party.

There was much rejoicing! As well as much work to be done. There were many trees to decorate, presents to set up , food to serve, children to entertain... oh the many hours of work that our staff had put into making this holiday happen.

We had many many presents donated, and over a hundred families with children invited. The Blazers (Portland basketball team) donated lots of electronics that some lucky families got to take home. There was Santa and Mrs. Claus, who took photos with the excited kiddos and the families got to take home a souvenir. The Mom's Club from WIC (Women, Infants, Children) organized an arts and crafts table. It was a spectacular mess of a holiday festivity, and, as you all know, I loved every single moment. I just wish that I wasn't so tired!

Here are some highlights of the day :)

Happy Holidays!

Elisa, Sarah and I wrapped columns and vending machines in festive wrap to be ready for the guests!

Our wonderful health education tree invited people to attend the walking group in 3 different languages, and promoted tobacco cessation group classes!

Woot! Allyn and I at the holiday party!
