"We've had a. lot of high quality decorations come in," he said, add- ing that the store was able to offer some great deals on everything for the holidays, including trees, figu- rines, and holiday music. The store is now closed for the holidays, and will re -open on Janu- ary 5, The store was just short of $100,000 in sales when they closed on December 23, and will be reach- ing for that goal in the new year. Morrison also hinted at an important announcement following soon after. "We're still moving forward with the build on Parsons Court of course, but we've got some new things brew- ing," he said. Morrison also explained that they are getting some great responses for the position of store manager. "We've had a lot of unique, and varied applicants," he said. The position, according to Morri- son, is going to be a fun but chal- lenging one. "It's a fun place to work, but it's definitely hard work," he said. "I'm constantly impressed by the dedica- tion of our team." Morrison also wanted to clear the air about some rumours flying around as to his future, stating that his job, as executive director, is not to be running the store.

"This position being open doesn't mean I'm going to be leaving," he said. "It just means I'll have more time to do the things that I'm sup- posed to be doing. I'll be able to turn my attention to networking, and helping to move our new build forward, as well as look at increas- ing HFH's building schedule. We're looking at building more per year, maybe even moving up to four builds per annum." • -.0•4111/ ANL Wisking you APcvy appineu Ibis ijoliday Season!
