It was started by a board member and friend of Mark's from the National Lutheran Choir when she noticed kids at the bus stop without hats or mittens. We attend the gala where one on the entrance requirements is to bring at least one set of hats and mittens. Karen and I usually have at least a dozen as demand exceeds supply. Gloves are fine and larger teenager sizes are needed as much as those for younger children. Nokomis members have been generous in the past in supplying hats and mittens for this worthwhile cause. Each year the hats and mittens committee chooses a worthwhile youth based organization as the recipient of the galas fundraiser. It has included a group for dental health, an organization that brings fine music into the schools, a canoe and boat builder, and a cookie cart which gave kids somewhere to go after school while learning various skills and staying off the streets. It\u2019s a worthwhile cause.<\/p>\n<p>Please consider bringing a set of hats and mittens to the\u00a0Holiday Party\u00a0as you are able.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks, Mark and Karen<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3394\" style=\"width: 577px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ussnokomis.org\/crew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/hm-logo.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3394\" class=\" wp-image-3394\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ussnokomis.org\/crew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/hm-logo.jpg\" alt=\"Hats and Mittens Logo\" width=\"567\" height=\"90\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ussnokomis.org\/crew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/hm-logo.jpg 1999w, https:\/\/www.ussnokomis.org\/crew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/hm-logo-300x48.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.ussnokomis.org\/crew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/hm-logo-768x122.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ussnokomis.org\/crew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/hm-logo-1024x162.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.ussnokomis.org\/crew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/hm-logo-600x95.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.ussnokomis.org\/crew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/hm-logo-250x40.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.ussnokomis.org\/crew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/hm-logo-150x24.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.ussnokomis.org\/crew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/hm-logo-1268x201.jpg 1268w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 567px) 100vw, 567px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-3394\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Hats and Mittens Logo<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1478379173710_3203\" class=\"add-to-conv\" tabindex=\"0\" data-action=\"thread-item-replyall\">\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1478379173710_3289\" class=\"compose \">\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1478379173710_3288\" class=\"composeshim\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hatsandmittens.org\">http:\/\/www.hatsandmittens.org<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"composebtnshim\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nokomis friends, The annual Hats and Mittens Winter Ball fundraiser is on December 30.
