Bunny Run

Susquehanna Valley Big Twins Motorcycle Club’s 17th annual Bunny Run collection is underway! Each year in March the SVBTMC collects stuffed animals to provide to children who are patients in hospitals during the Easter season. The collection runs until March 25, right before Palm Sunday, and then the animals will be delivered to the hospitals.

The Easter-themed stuffed animals (bunnies, chicks, ducks or lambs) must be new and must have the tags left on them (for allergy concerns).

Drop off locations include the Bald Eagle United Presbyterian Church in Mill Hall, The Express Office and The Sons and Daughters of Italy in Lock Haven and SVBT Motorcycle Clubhouse in Woolrich.

Courtney, the library manager, can be reached at 570-962-2048 or by email at friendship@rosslibrary.org.

A resolution

Would becoming a Shoe Bank volunteer fit in with any of your New Year’s resolutions? The Lock Haven Area Shoe Bank is usually open one Saturday a month, when we have the fun of giving free new shoes to kids and teens. We are looking for more volunteers, including people we can call when we are shorthanded. If you’d like to volunteer or have questions, please text or call Wendy at 570-295-3443.
