The organization Best Christmas Ever will host a gift wrapping event this evening at the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame. The organization is helping to uplift a local family that has experienced especially tough times this year, and volunteers will help wrap gifts that have been purchased over the past couple weeks. Jamie Ball with the organization says it’ll be the last step in this year’s process before delivering the gifts.

“We will be hosting our wrapping party on the second floor of the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame at around 6:00 p.m. We will have a free-will donation for a meal catered by Taso’s Steakhouse in Oskaloosa. We provide all the wrapping paper, scissors, tape. We play Christmas music and wrap all the gifts we’ve collected for that family. It’s a good way to be involved if you haven’t so far, or if you bought some gifts, it’s a good way to continue partaking in that.”

The gifts will be delivered to the family of choice next week.
