Wall of Hope will visit Los Gatos

New stamps will not be the only thing to check out at the Los Gatos Post Office on Nov. 14 and 15. The Wall of Hope, a 100-foot wall dedicated to breast cancer survivors, will grace the building for the two-day period. The exhibit includes pictures of 750 Northern California breast cancer survivors, including 60 from Los Gatos.

Olympic figure skater Peggy Fleming's picture is included on the wall, and she will make an appearance to greet people and sign autographs on Nov. 14 from 11 a.m. to noon. The display will be open from 8:35 a.m. to 5:15 p.m. on Nov. 14 and 9 a.m. to noon on Nov. 15. For more information call Marilyn Burch at 925.736.7100 or visit http://www.wallofhope.org.
