COMMUNITY INFORMATION
FEBRUARY 19 - 25, 2009
For a Complete List of the 2009 “Events & Festivals”
ATTENTION ALL DOG LOVERS & DOG OWNERS!! Due to health issues resulting from the ice storm, our beloved four-legged friends at the “Good Shepherd Humane Society” will not be able to participate in the “Mardi Gras” parade on Saturday – with the “KREWE OF BARKUS”. They were so very much looking forward to participating and they are hoping others will keep the “KREWE OF BARKUS” spirit alive & join in the parade. If you would like to participate, please meet at the post office at 1:00p.m. Water and treats for the dogs will be provided & all dogs must be on a leash. Please call me with any questions (253-7333). Thank you so much!! …
