To The Eagle:
I would like to thank everyone that helped with the Christmas Stars program. It takes many people and hours to make it work, from cutting stars, newspaper stories, making calls, filling out forms and stars, and hanging the stars.
Thank you to everyone who took a star, donated money, extra gifts or wrapping paper.
Thank you to the Bank of the Pacific, the Sheriff's Office, the Bank of America and the Rosburg Store for all your help.
Many thanks to the four shoppers that bought gifts for the 45 stars not taken, the 12 people that organized and wrapped the gifts for 14 hours on our two delivery days. We were able to help 60 families with 144 children.
A special thank you to Kim who brought us food to make us eat something healthy.

Mary Watkins
Co-chairman
