Also the silent auction will start the morning of Oct 31st and you can find all the items setup at Lakeside Delights so please stop in and help support one of our local families!

This year for our 4th annual trunk or treat we decided we wanted to give back in a big way.

We are going to be raising money to help support Major Brantley Hooper. A lot of you know the Hoopers and have been following Major’s story.

We will be having a silent auction and all proceeds will go to helping with Major’s medical expenses.
