HOPATCONG – When 10 children in the area look under their Christmas trees this year, shiny, new bicycles and matching helmets will be waiting for them, thanks to the efforts of about 25 local elves.

Rather than gift exchanges, as Christmas music floated in the air of SMILE’s community room, the teams from each group rolled up their sleeves, opened their tool bags and assembled bicycles for six boys between the ages of 7 and 11 and four girls, between 4 and 9.
