Let us all help the Grinch's heart grow this holiday season!  Whenever you see someone doing something nice for someone else or you did something kind please add a heart with the random act of kindness written on it to our Grinch wall.  All supplies needed are located on the desk by the Grinch near the gym entrance.  Thank you!
