Christmas Card Corner

People that went over to the Posse table on Dec. 6 would’ve been met with an interesting sight. Loads of art supplies covered the table while a stereo blasted out music appropriate for the season. The group allowed people to design their own Christmas cards. The cards could be going to children who will be spending the holidays in a local hospital like Hurley or McClaren.

“It’s turned out pretty well,” Posse member Trianna Braceful said. “They [the cards] look pretty nice. I think the kids are gonna like it.”

Posse member Stephen Kennedy agreed.

“That’ll probably be the best part about it, is actually giving the kids the cards.” He said.

The art supplies varied.  Participants were allowed their own choice of colored paper, ink stamps, glitter, and stickers related to the holiday season.

One of the non-Posse participants was Jasmine Willis, who has sent cards to members of military.

“I thought it was a good thing to do,” she said. “Those kids are lonely in the hospital and getting a homemade card will brighten up their day.”

The event took place on the third floor of the UCEN. It lasted nine hours. It took place Dec. 5 as well as Dec. 6 and the event may continue throughout the week.
