Operation Holiday returns to DHS

Breanna Mehringer

Operation Holiday is back.

AFJROTC is in charge again of the food and toy drive. Homerooms will be competing starting today through Dec. 5.  Students can bring can goods to their homeroom.

Cadets will pick up and count the items at least twice weekly. Pickup will begin on Nov. 27.

Some food items that are helpful are Hamburger Helper, breakfast cereals, canned pasta, spaghetti sauce in a can, peanut butter, jelly, tuna or canned chicken. Items for 11-14 year olds are also idea.

In previous years, the district served 172 families. Another 26 families were helped through the adopt-a-family program.
