Christmas Eve Gifts
We were delighted, once again, to deliver a handmade, quilted placemat to each of our Meals on Wheels clients on Christmas Eve, along with their hot meal.

Good Memories from 2020
In February, Sigi Chamberlain and Don Stolte served as our Winter Carnival Royalty. They were knighted as Dame Sigi and Sir Don. In June we kicked off our 2020 campaign with the Great Fish Challenge.

She donated free shave ice treats and took voluntary donations for our Great Fish Challenge Campaign. Thank you again to Kim and Chris Baker! All year long, w
