MORE FUN JUST AROUND THE CORNER!

Are you ready for another Community Event sponsored by the Catholic Tri-Parishes of St Ann, St. Columba and St. Mary? Well, the powers that be put their heads together and came up with an idea for Lake Wilson. It will be held on Sunday, September 18, from 2 until 4 pm. Games will be held at the ball diamond, around main street and on the green space next to the post office. Why not all meet at the ball diamond and you will find out what the games will take place. That’s also where we will be serving nachos and bottled water. All ages should plan on participating; parents and children, grandparents and neighbors, high school youth with younger children – there are many ways to compete. Remember, it’s all in good fun.
