Fitch Interact Club Sends Happy Halloween to Hope House Thirty members of the Fitch Interact Club, with help from its sponsor, the Rotary Club of Austintown, created 100 treat bags for the Hope House of Youngstown. Members have been doing this for the past five years, and find it rewarding to hear the thanks of the children who use Hope House for family visitation, drop off, and study space. For some children, this will take the place of neighborhood Trick or Treat fun. Advisors for the group are Tina Kubacki and Gary Reel. Special guest at the meeting was Eric Bohr, manager of Walgreen's on Meridian at Mahoning Ave. Eric challenged members to get involved in a Christmas party for residents of the No Limits and Ginnette Alternative Centers, located on Lexington Av. near his store in the former Knights of Columbus building. The party will be December 18 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. with help from area groups and merchants. Shown in picture" Leslie Weaver, Megan Tirabassi, Alex Sofranko, Janell Verdream
