Community Vacation Bible School took place at Emmanuel United Church of Christ. Over 120 youths attended. Here’s a view of a game underway.
It was a Night at the Museum at the middle school. Sixth, seventh and eight graders shared projects focused on famous people from world history. The sixth graders’ projects were about countries of the world. The eighth grade projects were about a career of their choice. In all, 260 students participated. It is estimated that 900 plus people visited the museum. In this view is Raina Runk, nurse practitioner.
There’s an enormous gaggle of all sorts of feathered friends in a pow wow in the center of the National Quarry just off Jefferson Street.
