The St. Francis Church in Claudell will have the annual reunion on October 20. It will be Sunday at 4:00 at the church followed by a potluck at Gaylord Community Center. Fr. Daryl Olmstead has agreed to be the celebrant. Hope you can come and spread the word to former parishioners.
“Pink-Out” on October 11
The KAYs will be hosting a “pink out” this Friday, October 11th, for the home football game against Beloit St. John’s-Tipton. The community is encouraged to wear pink to show their support for breast cancer awareness. The KAYs will have a table at the entrance, collecting donations and pinning on pink ribbons to show their support.
Help us to “pink out” the stands as we cheer on our Longhorns Friday night!
