Packages from good friends of the Cle Elum Seven chimpanzees have begun to arrive and volunteers are busy getting ready for the big celebration on the 25th. The chimps? Well, Negra is doing her thing.

Volunteer Denice wrapping gifts that Robbi sent and getting into the spirit of the  holidays. (Beware when Diana and a camera are in the chimp house ;)

Volunteer Deb making treats from wrapped tubes and supplies sent by Candy

Negra doing her blanket thing in front of a window in the playroom (soon – no bars on the window!) Photos taken by Sarah earlier today
