The Carroll Young Professionals (CYP) are encouraging everyone to join them in the spirit of the season and to make donations at their 2019 Giving Tree gathering this weekend. They will be accepting unwrapped toys from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 7. These will be distributed to local children in need. The entire family is invited to come down and visit Santa and Mrs. Claus at their workshop in Westgate Mall and join in free crafts for kids during this time.
