Message from Minneapolis Mayor R.T. Rybak December 5, 2005 HOLIDAY GIFT GUIDE! I hope that this Thanksgiving was a happy one for you and your family. As we enter the holiday season, I want to repeat an idea that we debuted last year about how I can help raise awareness for holiday gift ideas that benefit our community. There are many community groups and non-profits in Minneapolis that will be selling items this holiday to raise money for their efforts - and I would like your help in gathering a list of these together that I will send as an e-mail update in the coming weeks so that when people are looking for creative gift ideas this year, they can consider purchasing something out of the ordinary "mall" finds and pick something that will delight their family and friends but also help our community. For example, last year we were able to promote several neighborhood associations that were selling items as fundraisers, several holiday craft fairs and bazaars that were community based, and several non-profits who had items for sale to benefit their awareness and fundraising. If you know of similar community efforts or local arts organizations that are selling unique items this year, please e-mail them to my staff who will be gathering this information. The e-mail address is: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I hope you all have a wonderful holiday season and we can support these local efforts together!! **************************************************************** You have subscribed to receive e-mail updates from Minneapolis Mayor R.T.
