BOXES FILLED WITH WARMTH – As of Sunday (Oct. 30, 2009), members of the Pottsgrove Pirates Under-10 Boys Soccer travel team (above and below) had collected more than 200 winter coats during a two-week coat drive that will benefit individuals who need the warm outerwear this winter. The coats, which were collected yesterday and last Saturday (Oct. 17, 2009) at Gerald Richards Park, 2130 Buchert Rd., Pottstown PA, are bound for local organizations that will put them in the hands of children and adults. Team members, their coaches, and family volunteers called upon Lower Pottsgrove residents to donate coats in good condition, free of rips or stains, and clean. The result: boxes filled with comfort. The team is part of the Pottsgrove Soccer Club.
