Code Blue Saratoga Springs

 

CODE BLUE SARATOGA

Saratoga Springs has created an emergency overnight shelter system, called Code Blue Saratoga.  It is for the homeless on nights when the forecast calls for temperatures below 10 degrees or an expected snowfall of 12 inches or more.  The location of the temporary shelter is St. Peters Church (located at 64 Hamilton St.).

Our Alpha Day Habs have set up a box at the Admin building to collect items for the shelter.  Please consider donating the following they will deliver on Friday.
