Don't Fret the Gift Wrapping! - Margot Ferron

Get into the holiday spirit and give back to the community by joining us as we wrap presents to raise funds for our Boy Scout Troop, 787, Mission Viejo.  No package is too large or too small for them to wrap.

Admit it, you just aren’t good at wrapping a present and maybe you don’t have the patience or the time.  Wrapping gifts shouldn't stress you out at the holidays.  Get your gifts beautifully wrapped while supporting our Boy Scouts.

Just drop them off, come back and pick them up or relax, wait and have a cup of coffee.  It is a suggested donation of $2 a package, cash or credit card.

Pack your car and bring your packages to 25322 El Paseo, Mission Viejo, in front of the Buy Buy Baby store.   Dates for wrapping gifts are Dec. 22 to Dec. 23 from 9 am to 7 pm and Dec. 24 from 8 am to 6 pm.

Do you know more than 50% of wrapping paper is sold in the last two weeks before Christmas and 90% of the gift wrap is bought by women.  Also, Plus Mark, a producer of gift wrap makes enough paper to go around the earth 24 times.
