Councilman Eric Ulrich once again opened his office up as a collection center for a toy and coats to be distributed to needy and sick children in shelters and hospitals throughout the area. “It’s really the least we can do for families that are so burdened with either financial difficulties or unfortunate health issues at this time of year,” said Ulrich.
The office acted as a drop-off point where hundreds of new unwrapped gifts for boys and girls of all ages were collected. The toys were packed up and delivered to several stops through the community to a welcome and willing audience.
