Operation Scugog will try to provide Christmas hampers to all of the needy families across Scugog Township, said volunteer Ann Wanninkhof. And the food bank is asking the community to adopt a family this holiday sea- son. Applications for receiving a basket from the local food bank can be picked up at the Operation Scugog food bank -- located at the Scout Hall on Simcoe St., north of Port Perry -- or from Social Assistance caseworkers, says Ms Wanninkhof. "For those in need of a Christmas basket, we ask that you fill fill out an application for one. It's PORT PERRY STAR strictly confidential," she said. Any individual or group wishing to adopt a family will be given a sheet with a code num- ber, the ages and sizes of the children and confir- mation if there is a moth- er, father, or both, Mrs. Wanninkhof explained last week. Adopting a family also involves providing the fixings for a Christmas dinner for the family, the food bank organizer adds. "We'll give each family a voucher to buy a turkey ed," she said, pointing out that 157 local fami- lies enjoyed Christmas last year thanks to the generosity of others. Hampers will be avail- able for pick-up at the Victory Christian Centre. Organizers also ask that gifts to children not be wrapped. A preliminary list of needy families will be ready by mid- November. "We just want to make sure than everyone has a good holiday. I just can't say no to people in need, so we're here to help," (ROSWORD 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 " 27 28 29 [30 [31 32 |33 |34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 46 47 51 |52 |53 54 55 56 57 |58 59 |60 61 62 63 64 65 ACROSS 51.
