Pavilion Project
On Tuesday June 25, we celebrated the Rotary-Lions Pavilion Project Ribbon Cutting. Even though it was rescheduled due to rain, we still fed over 250 people.
The Pavilions look great and the pavers are in. We have a temporary sign at the entry until we make sure that there isn't any errors. Please reach out to Ken Callahan or one of the other Board members if you see something that needs to be corrected.
