THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS

Our sincere sympathy goes to the friends and families of Mike Crowe who passed away last Thursday.  Please keep the family in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

CONGRATULATIONS; IT’S A BOY!

Congratulations to Barbara Jones on the birth of her ninth Grandchild.  Warren Ira Lee Jones was born on Wednesday, Jan. 8.  He weighed 3 lbs. and 7 oz.  Doctors say he was very healthy to be born prematurely.  Warren is the son of Clay Jones and Ricki Medford.  Please keep this little one in your prayers.

TRIP TO LOUISVILLE

Anyone interested in taking a Boys Club bus to go to Louisville to watch the Lady Cardinals play a game?  If so, please contact Allan Oocumma or Albert Arch 497-9101.  If enough interest is generated, efforts will be made to put a trip together.  The tentative game date is Sunday, Feb. 2.  The game begins at 2p.m. against USF.  This would be an excellent opportunity to support our fellow native students (the Schimmel sisters) who play for Louisville.

CONGRATULATIONS BRAVES!

Congratulations to our Lady Braves are ranked Number 6 in NCHSAA 1-A Teams.  Twenty-three teams from Western North Carolina are in the top 50 teams according to Max Preps.
