    There is a lot going on this week.

    At the request of the 5-6 grade guidance counselors at BRES, we are collecting travel-sized toiletries in the Little Red Wagon.

    The kitchen update is progressing very nicely. Many thanks to those who have contributed to this effort.

    The Shoe Drive will continue until the end of February. When we checked in this morning, the total collected to date is 925 pairs. We still can use many more pairs so check your closets.

    The Cookie Walk will take place Wednesday, Feb. 13 from 10 a.m. until 5 p.m.. Please drop in and shop for a sweet surprise for your special Valentine. Thanks to all of our busy bakers, we will have a vast selection to include some surprises.

    Also on Feb. 13, Dr. Cook will be conducting Understanding High Blood Pressure #II at the Empowered Patients Lunch & Learn program. One does not have to have attended #I to attend. Bring a bag lunch and join us. Beverages provided.

    Don’t forget to walk with the Awesome Seniors at the Y each Tuesday and Thursday from 10 a.m. until noon.

    For more information, call 633-9876.
