Bill, that is a great gesture by the Sandhill Carvers :eusa_clap
The stated mission of the Children's Center is an admirable goal:

Appreciatively,

I was amazed at all the donations to the mission and the level of activities. Tonight, they have a Santa and refreshments by Krispy Kreme (I have to stay away). Apparently the auction takes place over the weekend with Sunday the day to observe what "price" our tree obtained. This is my first time and it appeard awesome to me.
