Andrew Taylor of the very nice Miller Park Blog reports that our recent rains destroyed a bunch of toys that were to be given to kids at an upcoming holiday party.

The Country Doctor (low income health clinic, 19th & Republican) and Miller Community Center are planning a joint holiday party at Miller on December 15th (10 AM – 3 PM).

Their joint supply of presents for the kids was being stored in the basement of the Country Doctor, and much of it was ruined when the basement flooded during our recent storm.

They are in urgent need of new wrapped toys as presents. I’m sure you can drop them off at either location. Miller Community Center is at 330 – 19th Ave E. You can contact the director of Miller Community Center (Thavy Pen, thavy.pen at seattle dot gov ) or her assistant (Zoom Piksa, Zoom.Piksa at Seattle dot Gov ) or call them at (206) 684-4753 if you need more information, or if you’d like to volunteer at the party.
