Operation Santa will pick up our area donation boxes on Oct. 25. Anyone wanting to donate items for the local military service people are encouraged to take their donations to one of the following box locations: McDonald's, Antiques & Oddities, The Creamery, Sterling Bank, Elkhorn Bar & Grill, or Diana's Beauty Salon.

Volunteers need time to sort and purchase additional items for the Christmas boxes. All Christmas boxes will be sent out the first week of November in order to reach Iraq by Christmas.
