Our Annual Christmas Gift Campaign is now underway; however, it is different this year. We are accepting ONLY unwrapped gifts and toys for children and appropriate gifts for teens such as books and personal products. We are not accepting food products; however, if you wish the local Food Bank will be happy to accept food donations.

The campaign will run for three Saturdays with windup on December 11. Those who bring in gifts valued at at least $10, will receive two free meat tickets.

We hope to see you this Saturday at Talbot Trail Golf Course.
