	The elf magic started at Joliet Area Community Hospice with a mother's request. Her son was in Iraq and his platoon needed socks. Joliet Area Community Hospice filled their elves@work^SM magic bag and sent socks to the soldiers in the platoon. The magic didn't stop there, the hospice is still at it. If you would like to donate new socks to their campaign to make sure all the young men and women serving our country have good socks, please call Ava Shapard at 815-740-4104.
