Santa came early in Dillonvale, thanks to the Jefferson County Probation Department from District III (Dillonvale) county court. It’s part of the department’s community service efforts and all of the toys collected were donated to children in need. Shown with some of the items collected were, from left, Shari Gaul, Evelyn Burley, Gladys Horsky, Mike Horsky and Rick Verardi. — Contributed
