You can get a coat, free, Nov. 1, at the American Legion’s “free coat” giveaway.

The coats were gathered during the Legion’s summer garage sale each Saturday at the Vet’s Center in Electric City, where people donated items for the sale.

“No one wanted coats in the summer, so we decided to make then available later for those who need coats,” stated Cindy James, legion commander.

The coats have been cleaned, come in all sizes, and some have scarves.

James stated that everything is free to the public.

And to make it an event, the legion is also adding free cocoa and cookies.

In all, the legion has 101 coats, all free.

The event begins at 10 a.m., Saturday, Nov. 1, at the Vet’s Center in Electric City. The giveaway will end at 3 p.m. or when all the coats are gone.
