2021 - Christmas Quest, a Selfie Scavenger Hunt

Image
 The St George Gingerbread Parade is in cooperation with Fandom Entertainment to bring St George a Christmas Quest. This gamify experience is available as an app to download on your phone for $6. During your quest or hunt, you solve clues, drive around St George and can win prizes. Usually everything is free here at the Gingerbread Parade , but by teaming up with Fandom Entertainment, we can fundraise for our nonprofit with this app-game and it can support causes we care about. One cause I care about it is bringing fun and entertainment to families and friends here in St George. I'm trying to spread Christmas Cheer and this is one way to do it.  I've already started playing and it's pretty fun so far. I like it because I like games, I like puzzles and it's nice that I have been able to solve these clues. It's true that a few clues I wasn't "getting it" but after a quick google search I've been able to figure out the clues. I like it better than som...

2021 - Spotlight on Volunteer Baking Team: Redwood Family

Image
The Redwood Family reached out to me pretty late in the event planning about donating a Gingerbread Village for use in the Gingerbread Parade. It actually came just in time because my other volunteer had health issues which prevented her from helping this year and had to step down.  The Redwood Family also asked not to be praised, but I feel like I gotta do it because I couldn't do anything without the help of all these people stepping up to bring Christmas Cheer to our community. So, I asked if the family would mind putting their gingerbread creation over at The House of Jump, stop #7 on parade map, and gladly they helped. They ended up putting together a whole trampoline themed gingerbread creation complete with basketball and trampolines, little dolls and even a book! Yes a trampoline book - to encourage young ones to go home and read after moving your little bodies.  Thank you so much Redwood Family. You did wonderful. I appreciate you. The community appreciates this eve...

Graduation: 4 years of Gingerbread Parade

Image
  For the last four years I have organized the St George Gingerbread House Parade. And this year, I declare that I have graduated from it. Yippee! I will from here on out be supporting the Jubilee of Trees.  This year I plan to make one Christmas Wreath and one Gingerbread House for charity to raise funds for St George Regional Hospital. I totally get it that a lot of people think that the hospital doesn't need our charity because they got money and we lowly people don't. But, let's try to reason why it's good for the community. Because of the philanthropy of the community, it benefits us. The hospital can expand and bring needed services to the area keeping the costs down for us. You can read more about that here: Foundation/Jubilee of Trees. So, what I am doing is shutting down the nonprofit status of St George Gingerbread House Parade and any remaining funds in the business account will be distributed to a nonprofit in the area as per the rules of the Articles of Inc...
