MINNORA CENTER FUNDRAISER A SUCCESS - "All The Bills Are Paid," New Board Members Sought

(11/14/2002)
"All the bills are paid" said Donna Jordan, a member of the Minnora Community Center, after a fundraiser was held last weekend. A spaghetti dinner cleared $2000 to help the project along. "We had lots of new help and everyone pitched in," she said.

"We're going to have monthly events," she said, encouraging community residents to come out and participate.

Jordan said the newly reorganized center is looking for some new board members. A public meeting will be held Monday, November 18 at 7 p.m. "We also need lots of volunteers," she said.

Monthly events are being planned, including an "honest to gosh" square dance on Friday, November 29, starting at 6:30 p.m. Well-known fiddler Lester McCumbers will be playing and Russ Taylor from Clay County will be the caller.

A special Christmas program is being planned for Friday, December 20. "We hope to have several different groups at this special event," Jordan said.

"So far, we've had some really hard workers help the center. We're very grateful," she concluded.
