Clothes Closet
The Windham Clothes Closet is really in need of men’s or boy’s clothing, blankets and throws and winter jackets. They can always use clothes for any age as well as for women and girls.

The drop-off time is Mondays from 5:30 to 7 p.m. at the Human Services Building on Route 202 next to the Public Safety Building.
Thank You
Kay Soldier, who volunteered “to do” the food for this year’s Veteran’s Day event would like to say a big ‘Thank You” to Dave at Thatcher’s Restaurant for providing half of the sandwiches for the refreshments. Last year he made and donated 100 finger rolls and a huge veggie plate. Thanks again for your generosity to a very important organization.
