Even though the Secret Santa Promotion is closed, and Santas are busy shopping, why not PAY IT FORWARD? Do you have a friend, child, parent, neighbor or fellow Bonanza friend you would just like to say ‘thank you’ too? Purchase a Christmas in July Gift from a participating booth, have it gift wrapped and send.
It will delight someone and give you a warm and fuzzy feeling. And if you do, feel free to post about it here on this thread. Of course you do not have to mention names.

Twas the night before Christmas in July, when all through the Ranch
Nothing was was stirring, not even a Branch.
The banners were hung on the stores with care,
In hopes that the buyers soon would be there.

The products were placed perfectly , all shiny to see,
While visions of sales, and sellers dreaming ’buy me".
And Bill in his ‘kerchief, and Mark in his cap,
Had just settled down for a long winter’s nap.

When out on the internet there arose such a clatter,
Sellers ran to their stores to see what was the matter.
Away to the chat window they flew like a flash,
Signed in and checked messages just in a dash.

The moon on the green “My Bonanza” was aglow,
Ringing the signal of SALES to their items below.
When, what to our wondering eyes should appear,
Messages in bmail and offers so dear.

Then,a smiling young driver, so lively yet still,
I knew in a moment it must be Bill
More rapid than eagles his helpers they came,
And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name!

“Now Mark, now, Jeremy, now, Ryan!
To the top of the forums! to the top of our mall!
Now dash away! Dash away! Dash away all!”

He was dressed all in retro from his head to his foot,
And his Oakley Sunglasses were really a hoot!
A bundle of tokens he had flung on his back,
And he looked like a peddler, just opening his pack.

He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,
Promoting our booths in emails and such.
We worked so hard, we just knew that he could,
And giving a nod, he told us yes he would!

He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.
But we heard him exclaim,as he drove out of sight,
“Happy Christmas In July to all, and to all a good-night!”
