Saturday Scenes

Though rain threatened under gloomy skies, it was a perfect summer Saturday, full of events which make up a community. We visited Mutts in May, a benefit breakfast, yard sales and car washes, then swung by the square for the Second Saturday Cruise In before heading to Christian Care Center for lunch. Remember to submit your events to the T-G Community Calendar, and we may stop by to visit.
