Holiday silent auction
The first-ever holiday silent acution is planned, but needs donated themed baskets from the community.
According to the library staff: The baskets - and think outside the box, feel free to bring your donation in in another kind of style! - will be auctioned off and will serve as wonderful holiday gifts; think about creating a basket which contains things that represent your business/organization, or life in Ada. Donations are tax-deductible.
Each year thousands of Americans kick the tobacco habit and participate in the Great American Smoke-Out. Thursday, November 15 is the date that smokers will be asked to stop smoking for just one day with the hope that this will be the beginning of a new tobacco-free lifestyle.
“There are many lifestyle and health benefits to quitting smoking or using tobacco products,” says Shelly Miller, Health Educator.
Apollo Career Center Student Council is partnering with Stoops National Lease to bring Hurricane Relief Supplies to NYC New York City.
“We look for this to be a community-wide effort – student council members will be contacting area businesses asking for donations. Area organizations and individuals will be able to drop off items here at Apollo near the CET building. CET students will be helping to organize and load the supplies,” said Melissa Roll.
