TAKE NOTE

THE BLACKSBURG COMFORT INN and MONTGOMERY REGIONAL HOSPITAL are working together to offer free hotel rooms to patients' families during the holiday season.

The hospital's director of marketing and public relations, Judy Tynan, says, "When a family member is ill during the holidays, the stress is further heightened. Through our program with the Comfort Inn, we hope to alleviate some of this. Montgomery Regional Hospital and Comfort Inn have provided this service to the community for the past two years with great success."

The program will extend from Christmas through New Year's. For more information, call 951-1111.
