ters and homes in Erie County do their Christmas shopping. The event was sponsored by the Huron Police Department. Students were bussed to the mall and assisted the senior citizens around the mall so they could enjoy the holiday decorations while helping them shop. The students enjoyed visiting with and assisting the senior citizens. The Huron Police Department then treated the volunteers to lunch at Wendy’s. French & Spanish Club Food Drive - This year the French and Spanish Clubs pitched in to lend a helping hand to those in need. For Thanksgiving, the French Club, under the advisement of French teacher, Kay Shoffner, sponsored a food drive competition between the French and Spanish Clubs. More than 10 boxes of food and hygiene products were collected for the Erie County Food Drive sponsored by the Sandusky/Erie Community Foundation, First Presbyterian Church in Sandusky, The Volunteer Center of Erie County, United Way of Erie County, The Second Harvest Food Bank and the Sandusky Register. All supplies collected were distributed to food pantries throughout the county. Shoeboxes for Charity- For the holidays, the Spanish Club, led by advisor Andrea Arambula and joined by the French Club were able to create and wrap 45 shoebox gifts for needy children at Victory Kitchen. The clubs sponsored a toy drive to collect toys, hats, gloves and hygiene products

visiting Victory Kitchen in Sandusky for their Christmas dinners. The Giving Tree- The French and Spanish Clubs also sponsored a family for Christmas through the Care and Share program. Students in the French and Spanish classrooms chose items from a giving tree and purchased gifts for children in Huron. Book Club Borders Holiday Wrap- The HHS Book Club, led by advisor Brooke Kukay, volunteered at Borders two evenings in December for a total of eight hours. The club provided complimentary gift-wrapping for any item purchased in the store. The club members enjoyed talking to the customers about the books their club has read and made several recommendations to customers who needed assistance choosing a book. The Book Club is currently working with Borders on a fundraiser to purchase new books for the Huron High School Library. This winter the book club will collaborate with Borders to distribute a two-day coupon in our area. Each time the coupon is used a portion of the proceeds will go toward new books for the library. Art Club Coat Drive- Under the advisement of Patty VanBarg, the Huron High School Art Club ran the 4th Annual Coats for Kids collection. The students collected over 100 gently worn coats, hats and mittens of any size. All of the coats

from the Huron High School Art Club who were instrumental in organizing the collection. A special thanks to Rachel Miller, Hannah Figgins, and Jon Clark who chaired the committee. **The location for distribution is the Lighthouse Church. Contact Tom Holzaepfel for more information. National Honor Society Food Drive- NHS sponsored a food drive competition among first period classes at Huron High School. Collected food was donated to the Huron Food Pantry. Ms. Telenko’s class won this campaign and was awarded a donut and juice breakfast. Bird Feeders- NHS made fifty pinecone bird feeders out of supplies they donated. Several members then took them out to Old Women’s Creek to hang them to feed the Huron birds this winter.

Huron High School students donated over 36 pints of blood to help out others who may need a blood transfusion during the holiday season.
