The Alliance Community Hospital Auxiliary Gift Shop will be hosting its annual holiday open house, “Christmas Countdown”, this Friday from 8:00 a.m. until 7:00 p.m. at the hospital.

“The excitement of the season is reflected in the wonderful array of holiday decorating and gift items we are featuring this year.  And as a way of thanking our loyal customers, and new ones, we are offering 20% off all holiday items,” shares Terri Dallas, gift shop supervisor.

Just a few of the items offered include gorgeous holiday dolls, jolly Santas, beautiful table appointments,  cute snowmen, unique nativities, ornaments galore, holiday banners, lovely jackets, a large variety of beautiful holiday arrangements, and so many more desirable decorations for the season.

“Our shop has been transformed into a Gingerbread Paradise!  Our selection of holiday items is second to none in this area.  We invite everyone to visit our gift shop and experience our uniqueness and affordability.”

Throughout the day drawings for prizes will be held, along with a raffle drawing for an adorable Santa.  Light refreshments will also be served.

Between the hours of 9 a.m.- 2 p.m., the ACH Healthcaring Library will hold an open house for area residents to introduce the medical library that is available for everyone’s use.  As with any library, there are tapes, books, videos and computer usage for anyone wishing to learn more about medical conditions and diseases.
