It is that time of year when the thermal shelters close and many families are displaced to the outdoors. Streetlights Community Outreach is in need of all types of new or used camping gear. Please dig through your attics and ask your neighbors for any camping gear that can go to a very worthy cause. We will be accepting the items at the April 7, NVBTA meeting. We would also accept cash donations to go out and buy tents and sleeping bags.

Thank you for your help!
