The public is invited to attend the Whitman County Historical Society’s annual meeting Sunday, Oct. 28, at 2 p.m. at the recently renovated LaCrosse Market. Historical photographs will be on display as well as information regarding the history of the store and tours through the building. Refreshments will be served, and Alex McGregor will give a talk.
LaCrosse Food Bank is making plans to provide Thanksgiving and Christmas baskets. Wayne Miller said the food bank expects they will distribute 45 to 50 baskets to needy families this year.
The LaCrosse Food Bank purchases the baskets through the Council on Aging in Colfax which receives a discount on baskets purchased from Rosauers. The Rosauers baskets are put together as part of the Tom’s Turkey drive project.
Miller estimates they need to raise $1,120 to cover the cost of the baskets. Donation checks can be made out to the LaCrosse Food Bank at Box 212 in LaCrosse. Miller said they hope to have the fund drive done by Nov. 10.
