Sign up today for the Eagles Club shoes and boots event

The Eagles Club will be providing shoes and boots for children in need again this holiday season.

Sign-up for the annual Eagles Club Shoes and Boots event started Monday and will continue from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Tuesday at the club at the east end of Pennsylvania Avenue in Warren.

“It’s our annual Shoes and Boots,” Club Vice-President Debbie Brown said. “We’re changing things up a little bit this year.”

There are privacy issues involved in relying on Warren County School District to provide information, so the drive will rely on the people who know their situations the best.

“We want parents to come to the club and register their kids,” Brown said. “This way, we can hopefully reach everybody.”

Parents who sign up will be asked to provide their name and phone number and whether the child in question is a boy or a girl, their shoe size, and whether they would like shoes or boots.

The shoes and boots will be available for pick-up at the club shortly before Christmas. And, there will be some extras available. “The day they come to pick up their shoes or boots, the auxiliary is going to have hats, scarves, and gloves that they can pick up as well,” Brown said.

Between now and then anyone may go to the club, pull a tag, and purchase shoes or boots for a needy child.

“We’re going to put a tree down at the club so our patrons or the public can buy shoes or boots,” Brown said.

“If they have any questions, they can contact me here at Family Video — 723-4606,” Brown said.
