As we now enter the official season of giving and prepare to brave the shopping mall and toy stores to find the perfect gifts, it\u2019s worth remembering that often the most memorable gifts do not come in shiny packages with ribbons and bows. Sometimes it is the gift of our time or talent that can mean the most to a person in need \u2013 and often leave a sizable impression on us as well. The 7th\u00a0District is vibrant with groups, organizations and businesses that are at the ready to give of their time and talents to help those in need in our community. This month my office is teaming up with many of them for several events and we hope you will join us! Whether lending an ear to a Veteran who may be telling his or her story for the first time, offering food and shelter to a family who has fallen on hard times, or giving council to someone in search of a new job or career path, we all have our talents and we hope you can lend a bit of your time during this busy holiday season to join us at one \u2013 or all \u2013 of the events below: \u00a0 Veteran History Project Workshops Wausau\u00a0  \u00a0Friday, December 6, 2013\u00a0  8:00am\u00a0  \u00a0Marathon County Historical Society\u00a0  \u00a0410 McIndoe Street\u00a0  \u00a0Wausau,\u00a0WI\u00a054403 Superior\u00a0Saturday, December 7, 2013\u00a0  9:30am\u00a0  \u00a0Richard I.
