Goodfellows Make Christmas Merry in Terry County
The Goodfellows, led by city manager Jake Geron for over fifteen years, coordinate a community Christmas effort with Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, 4-H, and the fire department. The United Fund provides about 600 dollars for food baskets including a full dinner, while toys from various groups are repaired by firefighters and distributed to children by age. The program, originating with the Lions Club over two decades ago, remains a quiet but vital community activity that brings happiness to families in need.
