Wednesday, November 28, 2018 The Nugget Newspaper, Sisters, Oregon 13 Fire department sponsors spirit of giving drive Sisters is a generous community all year round, but that spirit is especially in evidence during the holidays. The Sisters-Camp Sherman Fire & Ambulance Association is sponsoring the annual “Spirit of Christmas Giving Tree” to provide Christmas gifts to families in need in Sisters Country this holiday season. They expect to serve close to 250 families this year. Gifts are available to children age newborn to seniors in high school of low-income fami- lies who live within the Sisters or Black Butte school districts. The Association is collecting new unwrapped gifts at the fire station at 301 S. Elm St. in Sisters. There will be “Spirit of Christmas Giving Trees” at Sisters Ray’s Food Place, Sisters Bi-Mart, Black Butte Ranch Post Office and Black Butte Ranch Police Department. Volunteers encourage you to pick a gift tag for a child from one of the trees and purchase specific gifts requested by the families rather than just donating a non-specific gift. For those folks that would like to participate in the pro- gram but are unable to purchase a specific gift, they will also accept cash donations. Cash donations are tax-deductible and will go toward gift-buying. Cash donations can be made at the main fire station, by mail at PO Box 1509, An amazing all-natural moisturizer, perfect for our Central Oregon activities and lifestyle Infused with organic essential oils Four scents • Two sizes Made in Sisters by a registered nurse “I couldn’t fi nd a product that worked on a nurse’s hands, so I created one!” Call for more information, 541-420-6889 threesistersskincare@gmail.com Our Promise to Our Community... …We’re here for you every day and after hours with medical care you can count on!
