The Salvation Army is collecting gifts for Arlington families through its Angel Tree program. Through Dec. 15, you can bring new, unwrapped items to the City Manager’s Office on the third floor of City Hall. These can include toys for children, as well as items for senior citizens living in nursing homes. Gift certificates will also be accepted.
