With great pleasure local 1052 Community Outreach Program and its members have been able to assist a local family with Christmas this year. We were able to provide a decorated Christmas tree from our lot, gifts for three children and three adults, as well as a 21 pound turkey and all the fixings for Christmas dinner.

We would like to wish everyone in our community a Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year.
