Christmas Around Towne is a beautiful example of community collaboration, with 40 area churches and organizations participating to provide a shopping experience, meal, and program, for our neighbors experiencing financial hardship. Sponsored by Lakeside mission partner Powerhouse Ministries, and hosted by Lakeside, the event is a massive operation, with 825 guests and 400 volunteers. Lakeside is responsible for the toy store portion of the event, including stocking and staffing the store. Help us collect 2,000 new and unwrapped toys! Toys can be dropped off during our gatherings or purchased off our wish list. And we have Christmas Around Towne volunteer opportunities!
