There is no set charge, but the groups get to keep any donations that are made. The SCA qualifies because it is an educational not-for-profit group.</div><div style="line-height: 17px; color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-size: 10pt;"><br></div><div style="line-height: 17px; color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-size: 10pt;"><br></div><div style="line-height: 17px; color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-size: 10pt;"><div><font size="4" style="line-height: normal;"><b style="line-height: 23px;"><u>Scheduling</u></b></font></div><div>The Barony has chosen to gift wrap on:</div><div><br></div><div>Sat, Nov 17</div><div><div>Nicola's Annual Holiday Sale</div><div>Thur, Nov 15 through Sun, Nov 18, 2012</div><div><br></div><div><i><b>and </b></i></div><div><br></div><div><span style="font-size: 10pt;">Sat, Nov 24, 2012</span></div><div>Thanksgiving weekend.</div><div><br></div><div>These are two of the busiest days of the year besides Black Friday and Christmas Eve.

The last shift starts at 7pm.

Two people can maneuver well. With more than two the space gets crowded. You can bring flyers and the sign, if you like. The gift wrapping is donation only. The customers will give what they feel the service is worth. They are usually very grateful.</div><div><br></div><div>When there is time the wrappers also wrap advance book copies as gifts for customers who spend over a certain amount.</div><div><br></div><div>If anyone needs tips or a quick lesson on gift wrapping, we will be glad to assist you.</div><div><br></div><div>The store provides gift wrap paper, scissors, tape, ribbon, jar for donations, chairs to sit.</div></div><div style="line-height: 17px; color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-size: 10pt;"><br></div><div style="line-height: 17px; color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-size: 10pt;"><br></div><div style="line-height: 17px; color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-size: 10pt;"><font size="4" style="line-height: normal;"><b style="line-height: 23px;"><u>How to sign-up</u></b></font></div><div style="line-height: 17px; color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-size: 10pt;">To sign up for a shift please respond to this email or call me on my cell.

If you cannot come, try to find a replacement from the group. If you cannot work your shift and cannot find a replacement you must call the store. " <i>No shows</i>" could jeopardize this opportunity for next year. </div><div style="line-height: 17px; color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-size: 10pt;"><br></div><div style="line-height: 17px; color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-size: 10pt;"><br></div><div style="line-height: 17px; color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-size: 10pt;"><b><font size="4" style="line-height: normal;"><u style="line-height: 23px;">Parking</u></font></b></div><div style="line-height: 17px; color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-size: 10pt;">Ample free parking.

This will let the public know who you are at a glance. It tends to get warm with so many people in the store. Dressing in layers is suggested.</div><div style="line-height: 17px; color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-size: 10pt;"><br></div><div style="line-height: 17px; color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-size: 10pt;"><br></div><div style="line-height: 17px; color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-size: 10pt;"><font size="4" style="line-height: normal;"><b style="line-height: 23px;"><u>Dining</u></b></font></div><div style="line-height: 17px; color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-size: 10pt;">There are several good eateries in and around the shopping center Choices are Thai, Middle Eastern, Chinese, Zingerman's, The Quarter, Kroger Deli.

I am not sure about the men's room. There is a storage room upstairs that is mostly empty during the Holiday season. It could be used for men, if necessary.</div><div style="line-height: 17px; color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-size: 10pt;"><br></div><div style="line-height: 17px; color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-size: 10pt;"><br></div><div style="line-height: 17px; color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-size: 10pt;"><br></div><div style="line-height: 17px; color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-size: 10pt;"><br></div><div style="line-height: 17px; color: rgb(42, 42, 42); font-size: 10pt;"><span style="font-size: 10pt;">Thank you Everyone.
