Central Illlinois Shop Hop was a great success and plans are underway for the Hop to be October October 12 & 13, 19 & 20, 2012. During the 2011 hop, $500 was donated to the American Cancer Society fund at St. Judes' in Peoria. Next year's charity will be the Alzheimer's Fund. The theme for 2012 is going to be Halloween, but we'll have Fall included in that. What fun will that be!
