St. Nicholas' Day ProgramSaturday, December 21, 2002 - 11:45 amThe Taras Shevchenko School of Ukrainian Studies of Washington will hold its annual St. Nicholas' Day Program this Saturday December 21 at Westland Middle School, 5511 Massachusetts Ave, Bethesda, MD. The program will start at 11:45 am and will include presentations by the school children, the school choir, and a visit by Sviatyi Mykolai. All are welcome! Please call Halyna Breslawec at (301) 983-0152 for additional information or contact the Ukrainian School at UKISCHOOL@aol.com. The Ukrainian School has been asked to help provide used shoes and socks for two orphanages in Krasnodon and in Borshchiv. A collection box will be available on December 21 during the St. Nicholas event. Please donate one or more pairs of good, clean used childrens' shoes, sneakers or boots. Into the shoes, place two or more pairs of socks. If you can, place a stuffed animal or other small toy and put in a plastic bag. Attach an envelope and put $1.00 inside the envelope to defray the shipping costs. An American Christmas card would also be nice to include with each package. The age of the children range from 5 to 17 with the largest number of children being in the 11-14 age range. Please be generous! |
