We have a lot of favourite toys here at Gingerbread, it was very hard to narrow down to our top 30 but if you are looking for inspiration this holiday season - here it is!  

Last but certainly not least -
a big Thank you to Charlie's Girl Hair and Spa for

You may have heard that the Humane Society is facing closure -
when we were visiting the shelter, we learned that 2 years ago they housed over
600 evacuee cats, and the next year another 150 plus more -
ALL WITHOUT GOVERNMENT FUNDING OR REIMBURSEMENT!
Anyone who owns a pet knows that they aren't inexpensive
- can you imagine multiplying your monthly pet spending by 600?????  WOW!

The PG Humane Society relies on our community to keep it's doors open
​so they can keep on doing the amazing work they have been for all animals. 
You can donate here www.pghumanesociety.ca/donate or by going into the shelter or
stopping by a number of local busineses and offices who have
​ Change 4 Change cans - every nickel, dime, dollar add up!

They also have a need for volunteers - check that out here  www.pghumanesociety.ca/volunteer

 The Central BC Railway and Forestry Museum is our last stop in our 30th Anniversary Summer Promotion for July!  Everyone needs to add the museum to their summer itinerary, 
​ we had the BEST time there taking pictures - the hospitality was AMAZING!   
​Gingy is thinking a second career as a Train Engineer might be fun ;)

​The Railway & Forestry Museum revives Prince George's captivating history back to an era when the railway was the region's lifeline and forestry was becoming BC's future.
The Museum presents an interesting and fun industrial heritage attraction in a spacious park-like setting, where visitors are free to enjoy a "hands on - climb aboard" experience.
​(Excerpt from the museum's website ​https://www.pgrfm.bc.ca/)

The museum has their Family Fun Day coming up on August 24 from 11 AM- 4 PM.  Admission will be free by donation to the Two Bunnies Rescue or the PG Humane Society - all the details can be found here https://www.facebook.com/events/503300283771993/  Sounds like a fun day!
