Margaret Freer, one of the Freer Auto Body owners, encouraged residents to pick up a gift on Black Friday, Nov. 24, 2023, or over the weekend of heavy holiday shopping time at a reduced price for the campaign. "We need people to come and bring toys and gifts," Margaret Freer said. "It is very critical time and there is such a need in the community now.
