This podcast is a visit with Bryan/College Station Salvation Army captain Tim Israel and WTAW's Bill Oliver.

The Bryan/College Station Salvation Army still has about 750 Christmas Angels to be adopted.

Captain Tim Israel also says with less than two weeks remaining, only 300 gifts have been turned in from the 1,100 angels that have been adopted so far.

Volunteers are still needed to sort and distribute gifts.

And volunteers continue to be recruited to ring bells at more than 20 red kettle locations around the twin cities.

Israel said the annual mayor's ring off is Saturday (December 4) during the noon hour. Bryan mayor Andrew Nelson will be at the Briarcrest Walmart and College Station mayor Karl Mooney will be at the College Station Walmart.
