Attention Cattail Kids!
Jingles is BACk! We are excited to welcome Jingles back to Cattail Creek for his second holiday season! Like all other elves from the North Pole, he will arrive the day after Thanksgiving – Friday, November 27, and stick around to help celebrate Christmas with everyone at Cattail. As I’m sure you all remember from last year, Jingles sure can cause some mischief. He ‘decorated’ our Christmas Tree, drank a little too much of Claude’s Famous Egg Nog, and who can forget the addition he made to the Past President’s pictures! We can expect exciting, new antics from him this year, and we look forward to seeing what he has up his sleeve. Make sure to follow Cattail Creek on Instagram (@cattailcreekcc) to keep track of Jingles this holiday season. Throughout the month of December, please use #cattailelf if you post your own photos of Jingles and his activities at the Club! Remember: Jingles reports back to Santa at the North Pole every night, so make sure you’re on your best Cattail behavior! Happy Holiday Season! Sincerely,
Gabby Forte Membership Director
