Warming center open tonight

The St. Vincent de Paul Warming Center will be open tonight, but a decision has not been made yet whether the center will be open Sunday evening. Sunday night projections are teetering around 30 degrees and the warming center opens at 30 degrees. The Warming Center won’t open for any temperature above 30.

As always, all future nights will be extended as extreme cold persists.

As the sub-30 degree temperatures continue, St. Vincent’s shelter will be open from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. Transportation will be leaving from the St. Vincent de Paul Father Bill’s Kitchen at 6:45 p.m. on the nights the Warming Center is open, and will offer transport back the next morning.

The Post Falls Shelter located at 202 W. Seventh Ave. in Post Falls, behind the Post Falls St. Vincent de Paul Thrift Store, in the Kamps Apartments basement.

St Vincent de Paul is able to shelter 40 individuals and will have available sleeping bags, blankets, gloves, stocking caps, coats, a full bathroom and warm food and drinks for people staying the night.

If you are able to help or donate please contact Scott, warming center coordinator, at (208) 664-3095 Ext. 306.
