Staying warm throughout the winter is a constant problem in northern Illinois, but that didn’t stop local Rotarians from doling out some cool gifts.

The Lake Forest-Lake Bluff and Highland Park-Highwood Rotary Clubs teamed up on Oct. 26 to give back to the community, donating over 200 new, warm winter coats to students at the Nuestro Center in Highwood as part of the nationwide rotary program Operation Warm.
