White Hall Fundraiser April 22
Joni and her family surprised me by coming to sunrise service at Salem on Easter. It makes my week great when attending church with my family. I got tickled seeing Bree and Bean coloring with Kohen. At least they were all quiet!
The rain was good for pastures and ponds, but the ruts someone made in my pasture are not welcomed. If it was an accident, I would have appreciated them coming by to tell me and offer to repair the deep holes. However, that did not happen.
Meetings keep this retired woman moving. When I think back, I did volunteer when I was working and driving an hour, one way to work. However, I still am impressed with people who work fulltime, have children in school and make it to meetings and hold an office.
April 22 is the White Hall Community Center annual fundraiser. There will be a car show and barbeque chicken plates available for purchase. Gates open at 10 a.m. and serving begins at 11:30 a.m. Plates are $15 and include potatoes, beans, dessert and drink. Half a chicken is $8.Gun raffle tickets can be purchased at the event for $50 each. Sponsorships are welcomed. Come and check out the cars and visit. We would love to see you there.

The BBQ cook-off on April 29-30 sponsored by the Whitehall Icehouse and Cafe has been canceled.
