Community pulls together
in Christmas spirit
Volunteers are once again celebrating the
holiday season with several activities including
the holiday lights display, Spirit of Christmas
gift drive and community Christmas dinner.
The Sisters-Camp Sherman Fire &
Ambulance Association (SCSFAAA) is spon-
soring the annual <Spirit of Christmas Giving
Tree= to provide Christmas gifts to families in
need in Sisters Country this holiday season.
<We expect to serve close to 250 families,=
said Julie Spor, district public affairs specialist.
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. Applications for the program
are available to be picked up now at Sisters-
Camp Sherman Fire District, Kiwanis Club and
the FAN office in Sisters. Applications are due
by Friday, December 13 at 5 p.m. Please get
applications in early so requests can be filled.
The Association is collecting new,
unwrapped gifts at Sisters Fire Hall, 301 S. Elm
St. Tags with requested items are hung on trees
at Ray9s Food Place, Sisters-Camp Sherman
Fire Station, Black Butte Ranch Post Office
and Black Butte Ranch Police Department.
Volunteers encourage community members
to pick a tag for a child from one of the trees
and purchase specific gifts requested by the
families. For those folks that would like to
participate in the program, but are unable to
purchase a specific gift, cash donations are
accepted (which are tax-deductible and go
toward gift purchases). Make cash donations at
the fire station (301 S. Elm St.), by mail: P.O.
Box 1509, Sisters, or online at sistersfire.com.
The deadline for gift donations is Wednesday,
December 18 at noon. Tags that are not filled
by the community will be filled by Fire District
volunteer shoppers using donated funds 4
no qualifying child gets left without a gift.
<If you haven9t seen the Christmas lights
display at the main fire station& be sure to
drive by and stop and listen,= Spor noted. <The
light display is accompanied by music each
evening from parade day until after Christmas.=
On Christmas Day, the Sisters-Camp
Sherman Rural Fire Protection District and
SCSFAAA invite the public to the annual
Sisters Community Christmas Dinner to be
held Christmas day at 1 p.m. in the Sisters Fire
Station Community Hall. Everyone is welcome
and no reservation is required.
For information call 541-549-0771.
Hazelnut Hill
At Hazelnut Hill, they go nuts at the holidays!
Who doesn’t love hazelnuts and chocolate? They’ve
’ve
been making hazelnut products for over 26 years, but
new owners Ryan, a fourth-generation farmer, and
Rachel, a passionate chocolatier, are using the same
recipes — plus some of their own — to take hazel-
nuts to a new level.
Order their hazelnuts in bulk for eating, or hazel-
nut meal for baking; or shop their website for gifts of
roasted hazelnuts and specialty products like hazelnut
toffee or brittle, chocolate-covered hazelnuts and turtle
candy, hazelnut pancake and waffle mix, and hazelnut
ut
butter. And don’t miss their hot chocolate or a two-pound
ound
Oregon scenic chocolate bar!
Hazelnuts are a great source of magnesium and iron, and a good source of protein and
healthy fats. There’s nothing more “Oregon” than hazelnuts; the state is the largest hazelnut
producer in the U.S.
