They need you: Make children's season bright

Those trees that you will see around Wayne County hold the key to the fulfillment of a Christmas wish for a local needy child.

And taking one of the tags off one of those Salvation Army Angel Trees will make a dream come true for a parent struggling to make ends meet and to make a Christmas for their child.

The tags include a toy wish, some clothing sizes and a few details about the youngster -- and taking one is a great way to start off the holiday season right.

You don't have to spend a lot of money to help someone else. All you have to do is pause to remember what this season is supposed to be all about -- something this county seems to understand without having to be reminded.

Offering a helping hand to someone else during this time of year is a great family tradition -- and many local families make it a part of every holiday season.

Make it a tradition for your family, too.

You will be glad you did.
