The Flathead Warming Center on Monday organized a welcome-back celebration for shelter guests after reopening for overnight stays last week.
About 50 people, comprised of shelter volunteers and supporters, bundled up to stroll up and down Kalispell’s North Meridian Road in the evening hours of Nov. 11. Organizers said the event was aimed at fostering a warm environment for homeless people who often walk the busy street to get to the Warming Center.
Many held signs that read “We care for each other in the Flathead,” or “All Welcome,” paired with an orange balloon at their side.
