Androscoggin Home Care and Hospice is planning its second “Home for the Holidays Celebration” to be held Dec. 8 from 11 a.m.-3 p.m. at Poland Spring Preservation Park. Proceeds from this event support home health and hospice care.

“We are building upon our success from last year’s event that attracted more than 200 people,” said Laurie Winsor, director of marketing and development. “Because nearly everyone buys a holiday centerpiece, we felt holding a silent auction of holiday centerpieces would be a great addition to the event.”

Groups or businesses interested in participating in Home for the Holidays should contact the Androscoggin Home Care and Hospice Development Department at 795-9428 or visit the agency’s Web site at ahch.org under community events.

“In addition to the centerpiece auction, AHCH has planned more activities for children, including crafts and games”, Winsor said. “Santa will hold story time throughout the day. For those wishing to do a little holiday shopping, we are holding a book fair and will have a dessert and beverage bar when they need to take a break.”
