An effort currently is underway to provide gifts to Manteno children in need this Christmas. Tags, with children’s ages and wish lists, may be picked up from four Manteno businesses: Berkot’s, Fitness Premier, National Bank of Manteno, and Whitmore Ace Hardware. Gifts should be wrapped, with the tags attached, and returned to the trees no later than December 15. Thank you in advance for your generosity.
