On December 7 the Monument Hill Kiwanis Club will sponsor the 18th annual North Pole Craft Fair. The North Pole Craft Fair is held at the Grace Best Education Center on Jefferson Street in Monument. Vendors purchase space to present their wares for sale and local churches prepare baked goods for purchase by craft fair patrons. Entry is free but patrons are asked to bring a non-perishable food item that is donated to Tri-Lakes Cares. All other proceeds are used to execute the philanthropic element of the MHKC mission.

Last year the event drew more than 1,300 visitors to Grace Best Education Center at 66 N Jefferson St. in downtown Monument. Shoppers chose from 63 vendors. Tri-Lakes Cares (a community-based, volunteer-supported, resource center is dedicated to improving people’s lives through emergency, self-sufficiency and relief programs) sponsored their popular Cookie Walk which sold 119 dozen Christmas cookies that netted $682. Additionally, Tri-Lakes Cares, received $1,476 in cash donations as well as 638 pounds of food, toys and games.

All of these donations have a significant impact on the Christmas experience for the families that Tri-Lakes Cares serves. We also received donations for “4 KidzSports” which included a variety of gently used sporting equipment. All proceeds from booth fees help our Club fund a variety of Lewis Palmer School District 38 programs and scholarships. Bottom line…every net dollar earned is put back into our community to help kids!
