St. Ignatius Seniors: Cold weather clothes drive for St. Ignatius Schools

The senior center will be collecting coats, hats and gloves for the children at St. Ignatius Schools. There is a drop box at the center. 

Due to Montana being a northern state, it receives less direct sunlight during the winter months, from September to May. We have more cloudy and snowy days, reducing our exposure to the sun’s rays. Due to the less direct sunlight, we may not get sufficient vitamin D. Good food sources of Vitamin D are; salmon, tuna, mackerel, egg yolks, and foods fortified with vitamin D, such as milk, yogurt, and breakfast cereal. Check with your doctor about taking Vitamin D supplement.

The center will be closed on Nov. 28 and is hosting bingo on Dec. 13. 

The main dishes served at the center include tater tot casserole, Dec. 2; pulled pork with baked beans, Dec. 3; and burritos with french fries, Dec. 5.
