Community Club looking for new and gently used toys
As you know this is the week of Thanksgiving, and do we quite know what that entails. As we lay aside this fourth Thursday Holiday every year, what does this day mean to you. As this Thanksgiving Day rolls around, it brings us into view the facts so true. We may think we’re poor, heavy laden, or insecure but in truth our blessings are profound. We have family and friends we love, guidance from Heaven above and so much more, as our riches are so so many. We should be so very grateful for the day and the gift of Thanksgiving tomorrow and treat every single day as so.
The Pleasant Hill Community Club will be having their fifth Annual Christmas Toy Drive. They are expecting huge needs this year and are once again accepting gently used and unwrapped new toys along with monetary donations. The drop off dates for items will be today and Nov. 29 6 p.m.-8 p.m. and Dec. 3 from 1 p.m.-4 p.m. Also shopping times will be Dec. 6 6-8 p.m; 10 1p.m.-3 p.m.; Dec. 13 6 p.m.-8p.m.; Dec. 1,7 9 a.m.-11 a.m., and Dec. 20 6 p.m.-8 p.m. You may drop off items also at Central State Bank, Bank of Kampsville, First Baptist Church and Bob’s Red Fox. For more information, please contact Joe Collard at (573)629-7257 or Beth Burdick at (217)491-4177.
There is a Henry gun raffle for the Gavin Kendall family, tickets are $20 each and may be purchased inside at Central State Bank or call there at (217)734-2356. The raffle will be held Dec. 10.
Deepest sympathy is extended to the family of Vicky Surratt, whom has lived in town a few years. Her sister is Janeen Edwards. So very sorry for your loss.
