Despite a temperature forecast that had the thermometer dropping to single digits by Tuesday, Jan. 22, 2013, coats, hats, gloves and scarves were going unused in a storage space at the Center for Community Resources, 212 S. Main St.
Frigid winter conditions are the reason Bundle Up Butler was created in 2010 by the Butler Collaborative for Families, and 947 coats were handed out by the time organizers were preparing for the 2013 drive.
