News Blue Mountain Eagle Wednesday, November 2, 2016 Veterans Gift Shop open for donations By Angel Carpenter Blue Mountain Eagle Donating to the Veterans Gift Shop in John Day is a way to help military servicemen and women have a brighter Christmas season. The gift shop is on display at Mosier’s Home Furnishings, and do- nations of new unwrapped items are being accepted through Friday, Nov. 11. The gifts will be delivered to Port- land Veterans Medical Center where veterans can “shop” for free for their family members. This year, Lois Wacken donated 67 afghans, which she crocheted herself over the past 12 months. She said she likes to crochet while listening to the local sports games on the radio or watching na- tional football or baseball games on television. Ruth Harris, president of the El- lis Tracy Unit of the American Legion Auxiliary, has been organizing the gift drive for about 20 years. “I really enjoy working for it,” she said. “Our support has been very good throughout the years.” She said she especially appreciates the volunteers who drive the gifts to the medical center. Harris said people can do- nate anything a family would en- joy, including flannel shirts, paja- mas, toys for youngsters and small appliances.
