5th Annual Blessing Baskets Drop-Off for Lynn Families

Minton Regan Homes is collecting Thanksgiving baskets for families at Lynn elementary schools, with support from Councilors Alinsug and Megie-Maddrey, Brotherhood Credit Union, Tesoro Food Distributors and Stop & Compare Market. This year the participating schools are Aborn, Brickett, Cobbet, Harrington and Hood, and the goal is 200 baskets.

Drop baskets at Brotherhood Credit Union, 75 Market Street, on Friday, Nov. 20, from noon to 4:30 p.m., or Saturday, Nov. 21, from 9 a.m. to noon. The suggested list includes a laundry basket or similar (no bags), stuffing mix, gravy, instant mashed potatoes, canned vegetables and cranberry sauce, a cornbread or muffin mix, and a cake or brownie mix with frosting. A $25 gift certificate for a turkey or other meat is welcome, as are monetary donations.
