Pick your favorite holiday card
Who needs Hallmark when you have Photoshop?
A couple dozen families shared their homemade holiday cards with The Herald this season, showing how they put their own twist on the tradition. Readers can see the cards and vote for their favorite at www. heraldnet.com/ holidaycards. Click on your favorite card and then hit the submit button at the bottom of the screen. Voting runs today through 2 p.m. Monday.
We’ll display the cards in Tuesday’s Herald.
Naval Station donates gifts
Not only did the Navy League of the United States, Everett Council, and the Naval Station Everett Chaplains office, give gifts to sailors’ children, they tagged the gift with each sailor’s name.
Kathy Gambill, president of the Everett Council, said each child will receive $15 to $20 in gifts under their tree at home, from Mom, Dad or Santa.
Holidays delay trash pickup
The city of Marysville and Waste Management will continue to provide regular garbage pickup during the weeks of Christmas and New Year’s Day.
