A drive to collect baked goods for Laramie County senior citizens who will be alone for the holidays is underway.

Baked goods baskets for seniors in Cheyenne as well as Burns and Pine Bluffs are being collected at the Little Paws Cub House Child Care in Cheyenne.

The drop-off location is 2612 E. Lincolnway in Cheyenne.

Delivery is planned for Monday, Dec 19th, so people are being asked to donate the goods between the hours of  9 a.m. through 5 p.m. through Monday. People can donate either home-made or store-bought items.

Cheyenne City Councilman Richard Johnson, who is helping to promote the drive, says 270 local seniors are on the list for deliveries.

The drive is part of the Cheyenne Christmas Angel Program, which has been conducting similar drives for almost two decades.
