The members usedpurchased decorations, as well as donated personal ones from auxiliary andhospital employees, in decorating the tree.

All proceeds from the gift shopare invested back into the hospital, including the purchase of this tree, hosting a visit from Santa on Christmas Eve, and, mostnotably, the installation and maintenance of the Serenity Garden near the main entrance.

The gift shop will be open from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Monday through Friday through the holiday season. It will be closed in January.
