May 21 Fund Raising Progress!

Plans for a successful and fun time are made.... The car show is organized, thanks to Katrina.... the Cake Walk is under control, thanks to Virginia.... The secession event is coming together, thanks to Carol.... The food is being organized through joint efforts of everyone, with hot dogs for the kiddos and chicken dinners for all who wants them. We will have John Deere ice cream available for anyone who wants to purchase it, Back to Basics will be making homemade cookies available, and Bev will have Kettle Corn on the square as well.  The Auction is going to be a huge success! Check out the Donations page for a list of monetary donations too! This is the way a community comes together! Pat yourselves on the back.... tell all your friends.... and we'll all see each other Saturday!
