Mistletoe Market
Every November the Grade 11 class at Rosslyn Academy organizes a day of shopping for the community. The lead organizer this year was Chris (here with Tim and boys).
Just like a Flea Market, local vendors rent a space to sell food, used clothing, handcrafts, and junk. Hundreds of people come to the campus to start their Christmas shopping. This year we were able to purchase a baseball glove for Max, an Indian blouse for Lisa, ornaments for our Christmas tree, an apron for Simon, electronic DS games, beads, computer games, snorkel and flippers.
There was also a slient auction and we were the successful bidders on a basket of jams. Good jam is very hard to find here so we were excited and can't wait to try jam on biscuits for breakfast.
