To the Editor:

The Westfield Service League would like to express its gratitude to the community for its unwavering support and patronage. Our Thrift and Consignment Shop held its annual holiday sale on December 6 and it was a wonderful success. It was a fun day for our customers, our employees and our volunteers. We received so many positive comments that the good feelings warmed the entire shop.

Our volunteers work throughout the year to continually maintain and refresh our Thrift and Consignment Shop with clothes, shoes, books, toys and bric-a-brac. We would like to thank our many consignors, all those who donate to the Thrift Shop, our employees and volunteers.

It is with this team effort that the Westfield Service League has been able to contribute our profits back to the community for the past 76 years.

Our best wishes for a healthy, happy New Year!
