PICAYUNE — Senior Snowflakes represent local senior citizens in need and are available for adoption through Highland Community Hospital. The program saw over 70 seniors get holiday gifts from donors last year, and this year demand is higher. See Eursula Goff at the registration desk to help a senior citizen this Christmas.
