COOPERSTOWN—It looked like a winter wonderland when the Salvation Army came to The Freeman’s Journal/Hometown Oneonta’s office to pick up the toys and other gifts that were donated for the Angel Tree Program.

Fifteen families will have a happier holiday thanks to the generosity of our readers. Shown above are Salvation Army Director Margie Aitken, The Freeman’s Journal/Hometown Oneonta Office Manager Larissa Ryan and Angel Tree Coordinator Kyanne Clark.
