Gospel Train Deliverience Church donated these book bags to be given out to any child that have not gotten a bag yet.
These bags are stuffed with at least five lbs of school supplies.
People are pouring into the community and being the village I know we can be.
Let's keep the ball rolling up the hill. Don't look back.
Nuff Said!

Rumors are that there is another Ole Timers get-together in a few weeks at Willie's Place. I'm not sure of the date yet, but please plan to attend.
This a way for you oldies but goodies to compare your tales (lies).

I heard there was so many tales told that Willie had to open the large doors to allow the lies out. Lol
Now old men start mentoring these young guys. Show them how it was done.
Young men it was done with taking your frustration out with hitting the ball from Wilsoh Street to... Macedonia to....Pearidge to.....Piney Woods to.....
They planed their attack with strength on the pitched ball.

Texas and Tennessee visitors today.  They ate lunch at Stella's Cafe in Plymouth.

Today ends the enrichment program at the Cultural Arts Center in Roper.
Much appreciation goes out to retired teacher; Lois Davis.
Much appreciation goes out to grandparents and others who help to make sure the kids got there on time and picked up on time.
To stay up to what's happening at the center join this page, because I'm sure it didn't get out to some that would have enjoyed this program.
Much love to all the children that came.
Remember to PAY IT FORWARD!!!!!
