Busy Week

It's either feast or famine with this hobby of mine. Starting Tuesday with the Chamber luncheon I've been running. Along with my "honey dos" my calendar is full right up through Saturday. Before I start writing up some of those events there are a few reminders and announcements I wanted to share with you.

Tonight and Friday the Daw Middle School (grades 6 - 8) Choirs will be performing the Cinderella musical "Getting To Know" at the WHS Auditeria. Performances start at 7:30 both evenings.

No pet food give away this month. The "angels" advised they just aren't getting the donations as fast as they have in the past. Right now tentative plans are to have one on Saturday, June 20.

This Saturday, May 23, at the old Sky Bank on Main, is the rabies clinic. Proceeds are for the St. Francis Animal Shelter. According to this morning's paper it is $10 per pet. It is scheduled for 12 noon - 2 P.M. All pets must be either on a leash or in a kennel. While you're there you can get some of Byron Carter's mouth watering & delicious barbecue chicken. He tells me his recipe is an old family recipe and I can vouch that it is worth the price of admission. It's worth the trip even if you don't have any pets to be vaccinated.

Monday is Memorial Day. Ceremonies start at 9 A.M. at the 4th St. Square. The Memorial Council is holding a tag day on Saturday. Money raised will go toward the purchase of flags for the veteran's graves. There are over 1,000 vets buried in Wellsville. Supporting this worthy cause is the least we can do to honor the ville's sons and daughters that served our country.

In closing I would like to say congratulations to WHS Class of '07 alumni PFC Justine Warner. Warner is currently on a tour of duty in Iraq and is the son of Rev. & Mrs. Troy Warner. Justine was selected as Hero of the Week recently. He was cited for his work ethic and maintainance of three different vehicle platforms. He keeps them ready to roll within minutes. He was also cited for his dedication in keeping personally in top physical condition and encouraging others to do likewise. In his spare time he's furthering his education through correspondence courses. God's speed for a safe return Justine.

Is St. francis changing their name to St. Peter or is that just a rumor?

Where does this stuff come from? There has been nothing said about a name change

I never heard anything either. It might just be someone wanting to stir things up.

According to a newspaper article Thursday the SFAS is very much still active. At the present time they are still looking for a suitable place to locate but even without a building they continue to being dedicated to their mission. We'll have more news to pass on later.
