Well, friends… this is it. We are officially in the full swing of Path to Presents! The auction is buzzing, penguins are waddling around town, and we’re gearing up for Saturday’s Wrap Party finale.
If you’ve been waiting for the “I’ll get to it soon” moment… this is it. It is soon. It is, in fact, go time!
THE AUCTION IS LIVE — AND HOT!
Bidding kicked in fast this year, and some items are already seeing serious action. (Who knew bourbon could inspire such an impressive level of competitiveness? I did. We all did.)
Only a couple items are still waiting for their first bid — including a brand-new addition featuring a hand-painted, original piece of art!
Every bid supports local businesses and local holiday magic, so jump on in and make someone chase you! (…in the auction, that is. Please do not flee down Copley Road.)
PENGUIN QUEST: WADDLES IS WATCHING FOR YOU!
A few bold Questers are already out there earning badges, snapping photos, securing “Midway Marcher” status, and racing toward “Full Flock Finisher” glory. There’s still plenty of time to join them!
Several locations are only open ONCE all week, but with a little strategy, you can still hit every stop before Saturday.
And the FIVE prizes waiting at the end are absolutely worth waddling for:
- $50 gift cards to Engage Virtual Range, Kingfish, and Old Carolina Barbecue
- A half-sheet cake from Tiffany’s Bakery
- A Wine & Chocolate gift from The Extra Daughter
Great for gifting… even better for treating yourself after a week of Questing!
WRAP PARTY: ONE NIGHT ONLY — DON’T MISS IT!
Let’s talk about Saturday night. Let’s talk about the finale. Let’s talk about that Wrap Party — the celebration where everything comes together.
Every ticket includes:
- 1 Drink Ticket
- 1 Raffle Ticket
- Light Refreshments Buffet
- Wrap Party–Exclusive Raffle Access
- A front-row seat to the final moments of Path to Presents
And that exclusive raffle? There are two beautiful jewelry pieces courtesy of Signet Jewelers — a diamond necklace (valued at $299) and 18K gold-plated earrings (valued at $250) — with proceeds benefiting programming at Copley-Fairlawn Schools!
PLUS, Breaking News: bring any boxed item you purchased at a Penguin Quest location this week, and our volunteers will gladly wrap it for you!
Holiday magic, local giving, and gift-wrapping elves? Yes, please.
SO… WHAT’S YOUR NEXT STEP ON THE PATH?
Bid. Quest. Grab those Wrap Party tickets.
Support our local shops.
Enjoy the final stretch of this week-long celebration of community cheer.
However you join in, we’re so grateful to have you on the Path with us, showing your love for the township! 🎁
