Conway, Mission, Texas 78572 (956) 580-7800 www.wintertexantimes.com Seven Oaks RV Resort adopts elementary This Christmas season, Seven Oaks RV Resort in Mission adopted Leal Elementary School. Residents of the park worked with the school counselor, Diana Gaona. The park was given a list of needs and wants for five families, a total of 16 children. Through the generosity of the park guests, after they made sure every single want and need had been purchased and wrapped, they still had funds to purchase five-$100 gift cards for five additional families. They were also able to host a pizza party for the entire school where they played “Name that Tune.” About 60 $10 Walmart and McDonald’s gift cards were given away to students during the game. Two students from every class that could name that tune were able to choose the gift card they wanted. Angel Baker, a member of the activities committee at the park, said it was a memorable every for everyone and “one that warmed our hearts.” “Our residents were invited to visit the school and watch their fourth and fifth graders perform ‘Elfish and the Sleigh Riders’,” said Baker, “We were delighted to attend and so enjoyed them.” Celebrate Kansas Day in the RGV Come celebrate Kansas Day in the RGV at a new location this year.
