A Christmas Story

Terry Slade (TMSLADE@IPGATE.ACTX.EDU)

For your Christmas cheer, I will tell you a story.

I play Santa at our December Cub Scout Pack meeting and we
pass out the pinewood derby cars to everybody for the January
Pack meeting. The Pack also passes out the prizes that the
cubs earned for their popcorn fund raiser. We give special
prizes for the top 10 sellers.
One of the cubs has a handicap and must use a walker to get
around. He was also the number 3 top seller in the pack and
therefore had earned a really cool gumball machine.
When the meeting was over, he came to me as Santa and
asked if I took toys to needy children. I told him that Santa took
toys to all children. He asked if I would take the gumball
machine to a needy child as he already had one.
That is what Christmas is all about.
