Winter Coats for Kids – donate a clean used coat to Kids!

Coats for Kids
The Jerome Optimist Club has chaired the Coats for Kids project for 38 years and still running strong. Coat barrels are located at the Jerome Wal-Mart (north entrance), the Jerome Library and the Jerome Middle School. Also assisting the Jerome Optimist Club is the Snake River Corvette Club, Falls City 4 H Club, JMS Leadership Students, Jerome Girl Scouts and Brownies, Horizon/Jefferson Elementary and Wal-Mart. PLEASE remember kids come in every size so adult coats are needed too. For a coat please call Sheri 308-3264.

We have delivered 122 coats in the last three weeks (thank you Randy and Lori Steadham of Snake River Corvette Club). Also a special thank you to Patsy Bland and the Twin Falls Optimist Club for their donation of a couple of coats as well so that we could fill all of our orders to date. Right now, we need girl coats sizes 6, woman's sizes medium, large and x-large; I need boy coats sizes 5, 6 and 10/12

Free Breakfast w/Santa
