Carmine State Bank recently made a contribution of $500 to the Combined Community Action (CCA) in conjunction with their upcoming Fund Raiser on June 10. CCA is a non-profit organization which provides assistance to people in a six-county area, including Fayette and Lee counties. Programs offered by CCA include Meals on Wheels, Utility Assistance, Weatherization Assistance, and Emergency Grants. CCA has been serving the community for over 56 years. Pictured from left, representing CCA are Marilyn Wagner and Noelia Buck, and representing Carmine State Bank are Chris Coufal and Susan Michael. A Memorial Day ceremony was held at the Carmine City Park on May 30. Approximately 35 people attended. Names of area deceased veterans were read.
