"There is nothing we can do to erase the tragedy of Newtown," said Acheson said. "However, our small town can try & bring some comfort to another with simple gifts of kindness - stuffed animals from our community to theirs."

Join Acheson's free candlelight yoga session on Friday, 7:15 to 8:15 p.m. at Yoga of Los Altos, 377 First St., and help box them to ship Saturday. Mayor Jarrett Fishpaw is expected to attend. Call first: (650) 903 9996 or (650) 941 9642.
