Message from Village Clerk Debbie Williams

I would like to start off by saying how we value everyone who reaches out to find ways to help  our residents during the holiday season. This year I am working with the Community Outreach Partnership Committee and the Public Relations Committee on various projects.

SHOP WITH A COP- The Community Outreach Partnership Committee is working once again with the Sauk Village Police Association to escort 27 students (3 from each elementary grade level) to a store to purchase gifts. The amount provided for each child will depend on the donation received. The goal is between $50-$75.00 per child. This is a time honored tradition that has not taken place for several years.

CHRISTMAS CAROLS, COCOA AND MORE- Sauk Village has always tried to provide some form of assistance to the families in the way of food baskets in the past either through the food pantry or individual programs. Last Year the Christmas Carols, Cocoa and More was a huge success. Fifty families received a bag of non perishable food items and a Jewel Foods gift card. Every child in the room under the age of 12 was given the opportunity to choose a gift. Trustee Williams read "The Night Before Christmas" by the fireplace while Santa was in the hall getting the kid's Christmas lists. Cookies and cocoa were served in the Senior Center.

Neither of these events can take place without donations from our residents and valued community partners. We appreciate your generosity.

If you would like to participate in this year's holiday community outreach please contact me by email.

Again, we do appreciate you and look forward to working with you. If there is anything I can do to be of service please do not hesitate to ask.

Happy Holidays!
Village Clerk Debbie Williams
