The Marysville Knights of Columbus recently provided more than 100 winter coats for students in the Marysville School District, thanks to support from Fr. Tom McMichael and members of St. Mary Catholic Church.

Grateful by the pound

Mill Creek city staff collected 241 pounds of goods to send to U.S. service members and veterans through Operation Gratitude. That’s nearly 100 pounds above the city’s 2015 effort. Both staff and people from the community donated. The collection included hand-written letters from elementary age students.
