Tonkawa’s Annual Giving Tree
While you’re out this holiday season don’t forget to stop by First National Bank and pick a star off the tree. Each star represents a child that is in need of something special this year. There are two ways you can help. Option one is to take a star off the tree and purchase items yourself for that child. Option two if you are not a big shopper you may pick a star from the tree, donate money and we will send an elf to purchase items for that child. Donations for the Giving Tree are always welcome. If you have any questions, please contact the Chamber office at 628-2220 or Shelly Dickover at 628-2265.
