Santa's Elf Chuck Domanick!

Santa’s Helper on Andros, Bahamas

Chuck's Helpers!

In keeping with the spirit of giving, (the true spirit of the Christmas Season), I am happy to get a chance to blog about one of Santa’s helpers on Andros, Chuck Domanick, the organizing force behind a drive to deliver all the Bahamian children in the primary schools, preschools, and daycares on Andros (882 kids) a Christmas gift bag of goodies. Santa, Chuck, and other volunteers will be busy traveling by van (instead of sleigh) with their sack (s) of treats for the school children on the island in the coming week. They will be delivering to 8 schools on Tuesday, 3 schools on Wednesday, and 9 schools on Wednesday and Thursday for a total of 20 schools from north to south Andros. My friends (Jim and Shannon) and I were lucky enough to get in on the fun of filling the gift bags on the last day of our most recent visit with some other great volunteers in the MWR building at AUTEC. Even though helping fill bags was only a small part of Chuck’s operation, I am thankful to have had an opportunity to be a part of it. The feeling you get from giving is the best part of Christmas. If I get a chance I’ll post a photo or two of the deliveries but until then….............. I’m dreaming of a white (sand) Christmas!
