<p class="MsoNormal">As part of the December retreat this year, we’ll be having a “White-Cow” Gift Exchange (same thing as a White Elephant). Participation is optional. If you wish to participate, please bring a wrapped gift, cost ranging from $5-$10 for the
exchange. Outrageous, ridiculous, and re-gifted gifts are acceptable and encouraged.<o:p></o:p></p>
