Ann Willhite (r), owner of Deja Vu Women's Consignment, and her daughter, Dayna Mallet, stand with a portion of the nearly 650 items donated for this year's ‘scarf-bombing’ in downtown Athol. Anyone needing some extra warmth at this time of year is free to take a scarf, mittens, gloves - even socks - that were hung on signs, railing, trees around downtown Athol on Sunday.
