The auxiliary seeks new socks for homeless veterans, homeless shelters and others in need; mens, womens, teenagers, children — warm socks and every day socks.
Auxiliary members will be outside to collect donations while listening to 50’s and 60’s music.
Those who cannot make the sock hop, drop off boxes will be located at Reny’s and Family Dollar in Madison as well as at Sun Rayz Tanning & Hair Salon at 171 Waterville Road in Skowhegan.
Those who are unable to get to the drop off locations or the sock hop, monetary donations will be accepted to purchase the socks. Make checks payable to Madison American Legion Auxiliary, earmark Sock Hop, and mail to Madison ALA, P.O. Box 325, Madison, ME 04950.

We believe it's important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It's a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others.
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
