You can help shine a little light into the lives of hospitalized children during the holidays.

Every night from December 5-9, everyone is invited to the Covenant HealthCare parking lot at 1000 Houghton Avenue in Saginaw.

People can start gathering around 6:30pm, and at 7pm, lights will shine towards the windows of the hospitalized kids for two minutes.

You can shine shine flashlights, glow foam tubes, or anything that lights up! Free flashlights will be provided to the first 100 attendees each night by Impact Saginaw Credit Unions.

Each evening, a different musical act will be featured for entertainment, cookies, hot chocolate, and more.

AND, right now, until December 9, you can also donate a new, unwrapped toy at Impact Saginaw Credit Union locations (see below).

MINK MADNESS!

Here is original Facebook post from the Sheriff and then the latest followup from news reports…..

As of Tuesday afternoon at least 10,000 minks still were unaccounted for and the owner of the farm said that many of the minks did not leave the property after their release.

The sheriff’s office suggested local, licensed trappers who could assist residents in capturing mink if needed. Officers also contacted the state transportation department after reports of drivers hitting the animals on a road near the farm.

So many minks were dead on the road that the Van Wert County Sheriff’s Office called in a snow plow to remove their bodies.

Who might release mink from farms?   On November 8, the Animal Liberation Front, an animal rights group, has claimed a member released 1,000 mink from a fur facility in Massillon, Ohio, about three hours east of Lion Farms.
