It is not possible to get a Dec. 9th delivery date unless we stop the sale on the 29th of November. By turning in orders by the 5th, and depending on the success of the sale the turn around time could vary. I think we stick to the 5th cut off and  I will just have to deliver or have parents pick up product if I can not connect with the students at school, which might be just as well.  We can also do another sale later if we want to. We are guaranteed delivery by the 17th and maybe sooner. We can fax orders as they come in everyday if we want, which will speed the production for shipping. I apologize for the time not coinciding with the concert, but when originally discussed, we just thought being back before the break was most important.  We can do another sale whenever we choose. Any  questions, just let me know. Thanks for your help.  Priscilla
