The Bunco group meets the second Wednesday of each month at the Cistern Country Store. Instead of a gift exchange in December, they brought non-perishble food for a food pantry. This year the food was brought to the Flatonia Food Pantry. It’s an open group and everyone is welcome. Ladies come from all around including Smithville and Flatonia. Anyone interested should show up at the store between 11 and 11:30 a.m. on the second Wednesday of the month. The game starts at 11:30 and is usually over by 2:30 p.m. which includes a lunch break
The Fayette County 4-H Shooting Sports donated blankets and socks to each resident at the Monument Hill Nursing Home in La Grange recently. Just a little gift goes a long way. Remember the loved ones at local nursing homes during this time of year as they may not have someone stop by to see them. A wonderful way to give back to the community. Pictured with Monument Hill Staff is Ashley Conrad, Casen Conrad, Alan Brothers and Quade Brothers of the Fayette County 4-H Shooting Sports.
