Plans for the annual Head Start Holiday party are getting
under way. This year's party will be held at the Augusta Armory on
Wednesday, December 10. Santa has been alerted and has put the date on his
busy schedule. The tree has been ordered and will be delivered in time to be
decorated with lots of mittens for the children. The State Troopers
Association will also be joining us to give each child a teddy bear. The
cooks at the Blaine House are busy making fancy decorated cookies for the
event.
However, as always, before this event can happen we need knitters to help make mittens to fit 3-5 year old children, or if you do not knit and you wish to donate yarn for mittens, we will gladly accept it. Also, we need monetary donations to cover the cost of the gifts for the children. Any yarn, mittens or monetary donations may be sent to Barbara Buck at 145 State House Station or call 624-9501. We can make arrangements to pick up the donations. Please put December 10 on your calendar and join us at the Armory to see for yourselves what happiness and delight you have helped bring to these less fortunate children in our area. |
