magazIne staffers Jim Harrold, Chuck Hedlund, Pete Stephano, and I look on
as three residents of The Homestead Living and Learning Center enjoy posing
behind The Snow Family.
the blue, a former secretary of
mine called. Marge now works for
The Homestead Living and
Learning Center near
Des
Moines.
(This organization operates an
agricultural-based living and learn-
ing community for adult Iowans
with autism.) She wanted to know
if we had any extra outdoor
Christmas ornaments that were
looking for a new home.
As it turns out, we did have, but
they were in pretty rough shape.
So several of us spent some time
one afternoon touching up and
repairing the ornaments.
As you can see in the photo, the
residents reacted favorably to the
colorful ornaments that we pre-
sented to them. And according to
Steve Mueller, executive director
of The Homestead, the ornaments
helped raise the spirits of families
and staff, too.
I relate these experiences to you
because I'd like to encourage you
to use your woodworking talents
to
bring joy to those you know,
and even those you don't. There
are plenty of opportunities to do
good. And believe me, by getting
involved, you will receive much
more than you give.•
About a decade ago, my in-laws
.rl..had a death in their family
that required them to
be
away for
Christmas. After some discussion,
the rest of US decided to wait and
celebrate when they returned.
Doing that turned out to be the
luckiest thing we have ever done.
Sitting around the kitchen table,
we decided we'd like to somehow
make Christmas less commercial. I
forget who it was, but someone
mentioned going to a local resi-
dential care facility on Christmas
Eve to spread some cheer. We
baked some cookies, the kids
made and then decorated enough
greeting cards for all of the facili-
ty's residents, and then we piled
into my brother-in-Iaw's van.
How could we have known what
we were about to experience that
day?
As
we met and chatted with
the people at the facility. we all
were mled with a sense of joy that
had eluded us for the past several
years. We've gone back every year
since then, and seeing our new-
found friends continues to
be
the
best part of our Christmas.
Recently. the
WOOD3
magazine
staff and I had a similar experi-
ence. For some time now, we
have been wanting to do some-
thing
to
make a difference in our
community, and this year, out of
