On March 22, Addison Trail received a generous donation to the school’s Blazer Relief Center. That program collects food, hygiene items and clothing for students and their family members who are in need of basic necessities.

Addison Senior Club (a club for senior citizens that’s sponsored by the Addison Park District) donated more than 1,000 items to the Blazer Relief Center, which included soap, toothpaste, feminine products, prepackaged food and more.

Addison Senior Club meets from noon to 2 p.m. every Tuesday at the Community Recreation Center, 120 E. Oak St. in Addison. The group consists of more than 200 members, who participate in a variety of activities, service projects and trips to professional performances, sporting events, shopping trips, cultural tours and restaurants. Those who are 55 years old or older are invited to join the club, and the membership fee is $20 a year for Addison residents and $40 a year for nonresidents.
