Skier and snow enthusiast blessing kicks off coat drive

Sunday Nov. 10, at 10:30 a.m—KILLINGTON—Skiers and snow enthusiasts alike are invited to gather at Church of Our Saviour at Mission Farm on Nov. 10 for the annual blessing to welcome a safe, snowy and fun winter. Bring your skis, boards or any other winter gear for a blessing at 10:30 a.m., with coffee and refreshments to follow.

The event will also mark the beginning of the 3rd annual coat drive. All types of coats and winter outerwear (new or clean, gently-used) will be accepted. Donations will be given to Vermont Adaptive Ski Program or Rutland Open Door Mission.  Cash donations will be used to purchase outerwear for our neighbors in need.
