The Montgomery County Family YMCA started this November, 2009 the” Giving Back to the Community/ Area” program - Holiday Food Baskets till Jan.
Members of the Red Oak Rotary gathered nearly $400 worth of food baskets this year. Gift baskets include either turkey or ham which were donated by Hy-Vee and Fareway Foods.
Under the “I Wonder What Ever Happened to?” category we put the forty-eight foot long, fifteen car, 8,000 part model circus train completed in 1963 by Harry Carmichael of Red Oak.
With Christmas now hours away, hopefully all that’s necessary to celebrate in your home is ready.
