Every year Bob Parks Realty, LLC of middle Tennessee hosts "Christmas for the Children." Children identified by school counselors as needing some extra attention during the holidays are invited because otherwise many would not have Christmas at all. The Smyrna office has been unable to meet its fundraising goal in 2006, so Christmas may be cancelled. As a result, bloggers throughout the world are stepping up to help. Read all about it here and how you can help.

We've nearly made it to the halfway point this year. I talked with our office manager this week and because we may not be able to raise enough money for 200+ children this year, we may just identify the neediest of the needy and try to help them. Maybe adopt a couple of families...

However, there's still time! Again, we invite our blog readers to "pass the hat" around their offices to try to raise some money. Even if you can't do that, just come out to the Smyrna Skate Center tonight between 6:30 and 9:00 p.m. Half of your admission ($2.00) goes to the Christmas for the Children fund.

Tonight we will complete the silent auction which features items including Dinner for 8 at Mothership BBQ in Berry Hill, Starbucks gourmet coffee, and much more! In addition, we'll have some representatives from Pampered Chef and Arbonne who are setting up shop. If you purchase anything tonight (and up to Sunday for Pampered Chef), proceeds will be donated to the Christmas fund.

So come on out to the Smyrna Skate Center tonight! Good times, good friends, great fun!
