PLEASE – TO THE LADY who took my almost new black zippered winter boots from the Lost & Found Box at the Community Centre between 10:30 – 1:30 Monday Dec. 17, if you or your child need those boots more than I do please keep them. However, PLEASE return the custom made, expensive black orthotics that were inside the boots. I need them back, they are expensive and difficult to replace! You can leave them at the Community Centre Office or in the Lost & Found box – we will check the box for them regularly. Thanks!! PS, FYI Those boots were left at the Centre on Saturday night and put into the L&F box Monday morning for me to pick up – when I got there they had gone. They were NOT free giveaways. Thanks - A Senior Lady with bad feet.
