Staffline: December Edition

Believe it or not the Annual Staff Council Holiday Bazaar and Food Drive is this Thursday, December 6, 2012 from 9 am - 3 pm in the Davis Center Grand Maple Ballroom. Over 35 vendors representing UVM staff, faculty, alumni, retirees, and students will showcase their unique arts and crafts, including wreaths. Bring a non-perishable food donation for the Food Drive to benefit the Chittenden Emergency Food Shelf and receive one free raffle ticket (limit of one free raffle ticket per person) for a chance to win prizes that include vouchers to Vermont Ski Resorts, gift certificates to area businesses, and items donated from participating UVM artists and crafters, as well as UVM departments. There will also be a Bake Sale benefiting the Staff Council Social Committee and Henna Tattoos from 11 am - 2 pm by Parvin Pothiawala with a suggested $5 donation to benefit the Staff Emergency Loan Fund.
