(KNZA)--The Brown County Sheriff's Office has received an additional donation of face masks.
Sheriff John Merchant said Hiawatha quilter Cheryl Mead dropped off about 200 children's masks Thursday morning she had made over the past several weeks.
Merchant said the Sheriff's Office would be giving them to children during their annual Trick-or-Treat Night Thursday evening.
Mead also donated more than 100 cotton masks to the Sheriff's Office in September for use by first responders.
Merchant said Mead would like to challenge other quilters to use their excess material to provide masks for their community.
