There are still items available at Scarf in the Park. People are still coming by but still a good supply remains. If you know a person or family who can’t afford warm weather items, please share.

WHAT YOU NEED TO DO KNOW ABOUT SCARF IN THE PARK.

WHAT YOU NEED TO DO KNOW ABOUT SCARF IN THE PARK.

VOLUNTEERS:
1. Dress warm. If you get cold, go to your car and warm up. Safety first.
2. If you are bringing items, please post the number in the comment section. We want to make sure we have an accurate final count.
3. We will begin hanging items promptly at 1 p.m. The goal is to have everything up in 30 minutes or less!
4. Because of the extreme cold, we will not be writing any notes on site this year. We have messages on all of the scarves.

Thank you for volunteering and thank you to everyone who donated. If you know someone in need, please share they can begin selecting items at 2 p.m.

Thank you Rural King for donating 20 pair of men’s gloves!

Some of the most beautiful moments happen before we even get to the park. This is the second year Billy Lanier donated items he knitted. He is on hospice care and yet he is committed to helping others.

We have over 2000 hats, gloves, scarves and socks for Scarf in the Park! We do NOT have many men's hats or gloves. We especially need men's gloves. Who wants to help? We are happy to pick up donations, you can bring to Scarf in the Park on Christmas Eve, or you are welcome to donate $$ and we will purchase. You can Venmo donations @Susan-Guess-1

As I stood in that small holding area at the McCracken County Jail with these three ladies, I just felt like a hug was in order.

I was overwhelmed with gratitude, love, and sadness. All at the same time! We do our best to hear what God wants us to do and we pray that he leads us to the work he wants us to do.

He led us to this place and to these people. I'm still not entirely sure why, but I know there is a purpose greater than the beautiful hats and scarves they made.

Everyone who donates items or joins us on Christmas Eve to hang the hats, gloves, scarves, and socks are as filled with as much joy as those who receive these gifts of hope. Volunteers arrive at 1 pm. Come out to Dolly McNutt Plaza at 2 p.m. on December 24 if you are in need. You will never be the same.

Memory from 3 years ago today:

Thank you 12 Oaks Baptist Church for collecting and donating 300 scarves! They even wrote the notes and pinned them to each item.

SCARF IN THE PARK: This year, more than ever, we will have friends and neighbors in need of items to stay warm. There will not be collection points this year but you can bring your hats, gloves, scarves and socks on December 24 and hang them yourself. We are also happy to pick up donations.

All items are needed, but especially men's hats, gloves and scarves. We share items with the warming center and the Community Kitchen. The homeless in our community get items to stay warm as do those in our community who cannot afford these items. We have met men over the years who work outside and need these critical items.

We will begin hanging items at Dolly McNutt Plaza at 1 p.m. and those in need will be able to begin selecting items.

Help us keep our community warm. We welcome donati

Help us keep our community warm. We welcome donations of hats, gloves, scarves and socks for our 7th Annual Scarf in the Park. Anyone in need can come to Dolly McNutt Plaza at 2 pm on Christmas Eve to get what they need to stay warm this winter. Items remain at the park until they are gone. We will also take items to the Community Kitchen and Warming Center. Each item includes a message of hope. Questions? Contact me at 270.210.2434 or susan@paducahbank.com.

The countdown is on! The Be Kind Kentucky license

The countdown is on! The Be Kind Kentucky license plate will be available in 5 months!

We hope you will support spreading the kindness message. Every time your car carries the message throughout Paducah, Kentucky, or wherever your car travels across the country, you become a kindness champion.

And, remember, all proceeds go to support the state's 17-youth mental health drop-in centers (one opening in Mayfield). If selected for just 10% of Kentucky vehicles, we will be able to donate $1.7 million over the next 10 years.

It was an honor to meet with Governor Andy Beshear and Senior Advisor Rocky Adkins. We are excited about our official Be Kind Kentucky license plate. We are donating all proceeds to the 16-youth mental health drop-in centers. If selected by just 10% vehicles, we will donate $1.7 million over the next decade. You can get one in January 2023.

Many of you have asked about the Kindness Walk. We won't be hosting one this year. The pandemic was still active earlier in the year when we would have needed to seek out sponsors. We only charge $10 registration as we want to keep it affordable so everyone can participate. $6 of that cost goes for the t-shirt. The powdered color, registration, insurance, etc. exceeds the registration fee. We look forward to seeing everyone on the first Saturday of August in 2023!

We are adding a 4th Kindness Mural to our community - this time in Reidland at Hearth and Home on Benton Road. We are looking for designs. We want something simple but powerful! Send designs to susan@paducahbank.com. Our goal is to paint it in May after @morganguess returns home from college.
