Tips & Advice
- Put every gift in a box before you leave home, because this year the Wrapsters only take boxed items.
- Bring a bag of non-perishable food for the New Trier Township Food Pantry, since that donation takes the place of a wrapping fee.
- Register ahead and pick a drop-off time slot, because pre-registration is encouraged even though walk-ins are welcome.
- Sort out which presents you want wrapped before you go, since each family can drop off no more than 10 gifts.
- Keep the rest of the day flexible so you can come back to Mallinckrodt Center and collect your wrapped gifts the same day.
Special Events & Promotions
- New this year: every gift must be in a box before drop-off.
