What we’re working on: Dec. 24

Here’s a look at what’s on tap for Sunday’s paper.

There is a lot of Christmas-related stuff, as you might imagine. I hope sometime tomorrow, busy as you might be, you’ll find time to read York’s “toy story,” in which reporters Leigh Zaleski and Erin McCracken, as well as several staff photographers, followed two donated toys from the person who bought them to the families who picked them up as part of the Salvation Army’s Angel Giving Tree. The story and pictures beautifully capture the feelings and dedication of all the people involved in making Christmas a little brighter for others.

APPT1226 — 8 — An East Hopewell Township supervisor had to resign from his post in order to keep it. Why? Well, because he didn’t want to get paid. Because if he got paid, he’d earn too much to keep getting his retirement. So he had to be appointed, not elected, then had to decline payment for the post. (Badders)  EDITED
