Traveling Closet returns
Hundreds of needy area residents (below) were on hand for the return of The Antioch Traveling Closet to the Antioch Senior Center, 817 Holbek Dr., on Sunday. The purpose of the event is to offer to those in need a wide selection of donated clothing, toiletries, cleaning supplies that they can put to good use, all free of charge. At left: Volunteer Leah Meltzer teaches the importance of left vs. right when putting on shoes to Payton Cameron, 3, at the Antioch Traveling Closet. In addition to clothing and cleaning supplies, five hairstylists were available to offer free haircuts and members of the Lake County Campus Emergency Medical Services program offered free blood pressure readings. To find out more about the next Antioch Traveling Closet scheduled for April 2017, to volunteer, or to make a donation, email founder Lisa Fisher at lisa@limericklounge.com.
