                                         Holiday Gift Giveaway
        Community members spread cheer to the children enrolled in
           the Shack's Before and After School programs by annually
       donating items for the holiday season. These children have the
        opportunity to choose a toy for themselves as well as an item
                                                for a family member.

Skating With Santa
The Shack hosted its annual “Skating With Santa” event on December 17th. The
event was free and provided families the opportunity to come to the Shack and
skate with the assistance of the roller derby team, the Morgantown Roller
Vixens. In addition, participating families also received dinner, the opportunity
to decorate a cookie, and a book from Santa. Over sixty people attended and it
was a wonderful night of fun and celebration!
