The Yule Mule Train is Booked!

Okay!
On December 26th, we will meet at Playa Maya around 10:30/11 ish and hang out whatever part of the day you care to. Peeps will, if they want to, mule down some goodies or essentials for the locals. Some of the locals will meet us there!
The beach at Playa Maya is now wider and prettier, and the bar and food always get great reviews. So come when you can and hang out.

More toward evening, we will meet for Mule Train Round Two at the Beer Bucket. Let's say 6 pm.

Shopping list, with suggestions gleaned from other threads: (I will edit to add/modify as necessary; I know there are locals we haven't heard from)

$$$ (Put a few items -- for both locals and mules -- up for raffle to raise some money. From susieinqroo: maybe the mules could donate their purchases and the mule...eees? could bid on them to raise money for whatever cause they were talking about raising money for.
From bigdave: raffle sounds like a great idea ... have several items to raffle. increase the amount of items won and maybe that would increase the amount we could raise for charity. a money prize (from 50/50 cash raffle)would probably be donated to the fund by who ever won it. at least i would or i would purchase as much as possible and donate it back.. what ever would work out the best.

Yee-haw-ho-ho!
