ST. IGNATIUS — This year’s Trash and Treasure Event will benefit the St. Ignatius Senior Citizens Center. The event, will take place on Saturday, April 11, in the St. Ignatius Community Center. Local vendors, individuals and nonprofit organizations will offer a wide variety of items for sale. There will also be a silent auction. Food and refreshments will be available.

This year, organizers Teri Miller and Carol Lynn Lapotka decided to use proceeds to help the senior citizens center address a critical storage problem. The tiny, dilapidated shed behind the center is used to store crutches, wheel chairs, walkers and other items. Something larger and more secure is badly needed.

Anyone wishing to donate money or items for the sale may do so at the Trash and Treasure site or at the center, or call the center or center president Mack McConnell at (406) 745-4151. Quality silent auction items of any kind are especially needed.

The center has resumed pinochle gatherings on the second and fifth Mondays of the month at 7 p.m. AARP tax assistance will be available in the center on Tuesday, March 31. Those wanting to sign up for tax help appointments may do so at the center or call the center at (406) 745-4462.

The center menu and events for March are: 

•  Bingo is played after almost every lunch. 

•  Lunches begin at noon. 

•  Quilters quilt in the center on Mondays and Thursdays.
