THE WISHBONE - $10.00 each Make a wish in honour of AIDS Thunder Bay’s 25th Anniversary. Give the gift of a wish, the gift of a dream, a gift from the heart. For centuries the wishbone has been a symbol for making a wish. AIDS Thunder Bay is celebrating its’ 25th Anniversary with many wishes and dreams for the future. We wish you the best of luck with your “wishes!” Inside the beautiful wooden box is a wishbone made from plastic engineered to break - just like many of us have done with the turkey bone from the dinner table. If the recipient wants to keep the wishbone intact, it can be rubbed for a wish as the Etruscans did in the past. (Insert explains the history of the wishbone) Shipping & Handling is an additional cost for orders shipped outside of Thunder Bay. Total payment amount will be confirmed prior to finalizing order. Payment must be made in advance prior to shipping, unless other arrangements have been made.
