Among supporters of the Good Cheer Fund, the Christmas spirit has been strong so far this year.
Local residents have sent in an unprecedented amount of donations already. More than $26,000 had been contributed to the fund by Thursday.
The annual Jim Rhoades Memorial Hog Roast, which splits its proceeds between the Good Cheer Fund and the Interchurch Food Pantry, served so many people they ran out of food.
In a dreary year, the generosity has been a bright spot this holiday season. But much remains to be done, said Jacob Sappenfield, chairman of the Good Cheer Fund.
