Barnstable Police are thanking everyone who donated lap and throw blankets for the holiday season.
Officials say the donations from Macy's Backstage, Barnstable Intermediate School, volunteers and the community helped the department to exceed its goal.
Police collected 342, new blankets in just one month.
The blankets were delivered to six assisted living facilities and Meals on Wheels and officials say the gifts represented more than just a blanket to the recipients.
