wooo 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
