Volunteers across Yellowstone County have sewn 1300 Christmas stockings and filled them with candy to donate to local organizations.
The project started back in the spring. At least 100 people have participated in it, including the sewing class at Laurel High School. Students in that class sewed 50 of the stockings.Â
Volunteer Kamryn Garsjo said, I think it s really important to help out as much as you can around the holidays, just cause that s a time where you get a lot. And, I feel like I m very fortunate and so, I like to be able to give back to people who aren t as fortunate.
