Great Cokeville, Wyoming Christmas Gifts!

Do you need an idea for the perfect Christmas gift for someone in Cokeville?
Here are three suggestions:
1. Witness to Miracles, book. Cost $25 soft/ $35 hard. They are available immediately. Contact Karla Toomer @ (307) 279-3471. This book is published by Pronghorn Press and is a compilation of first-hand accounts and miracles of the Cokeville Elementary School bombing and hostage situation.

2. Donate to Cokeville Miracle Foundation in your name or in the name of someone you love. This is our community non-profit foundation and at this time of year they are holding their annual "Christmas Outreach". The Foundation executive board has been taking recommendations and will soon meet to decide what they can do to help families or individuals in need. Contact Karla @ (307) 279-3471 or Bill H., Chemene P., or Susan F.

We have multiple requests for assistance this year and are in need of monetary assistance to help fill these needs. Please consider donating from $20 on up, it's never too late. There is a fund that keeps any extra donations for the next year's Christmas Outreach.

3. Purchase an Alicia Blevins art work from the Cokeville, Wyoming Series. Check out her website at http://aliciablevins.com/wst_page7.html

Other ideas include:
Give a one-year gift membership to the Cokeville Historical Society. Cost $30 for an individual. Contact Charlotte F. or Karla (3471). This includes membership/magazine for the Wyoming State Historical Society.

Donate to the Cokeville Senior Citizen's Center. Contact Brenda L.

Donate to the Cokeville Arts Council. Contact Charles D.

Sponsor the Cokeville Miracle Foundation's annual high school scholarship. Cost is a minimum of $250 with the foundation matching the first $250. (Total minimum scholarship amount $500). This scholarship can be named in honor or memory of someone, however the scholarship committee of the Cokeville Miracle Foundation will be solely responsible for choosing the recipient. The information provided by the donor will be read at the Cokeville High School 2009 awards night held before graduation, become a part of the Cokeville Miracle Foundation history, and a press-release will go out to local newspapers.
