Fayetteville ISD Adds New Classrooms
The old cafetorium at FISD now has two recently added classrooms to address the increase in enrollment. Since Dr. Harvey took on the role of superintendent seven years ago, long-term plans for improved facilities and new programs have been executed, resulting in steady growth over the past few years.
City-Wide Garage Sale
The annual City-Wide Garage Sale on Saturday, July 10 draws people from all around the county. Shoppers can start before the heat sets in. The Greater Fayetteville Chamber of Commerce event begins at 7 a.m. and is over by noon. The Chamber is advertising the garage sale through ads and stories in The Record, radio ads, emails, social media and roadside banners on State Highway 71. If you send in your information before July 1, Fayetteville residents participating can be included on the free map showing all locations. The maps will be distributed around town the week before and on the day of the sale. To be included on the City-Wide Garage Sale map, email your name and address to info@greaterfayettevillechamber.org before the deadline.
Two non-profits will join in the sale on the town square. The Fayetteville Lions Club will be selling donated items to benefit area scholarships. The Fayetteville Community Center & Performance Theater will be raising money that will go toward their building project. Spaces on the square will also be available exclusively for Greater Fayetteville Chamber members on a first come, first served basis only. Each member will get 10 ft. of space. Only tables will be allowed – no tents. Spaces on the square will not be listed on the map.
