It's a good day at the Hunt County Shopper: we've successfully lived through another Monday, the papers for carrier distribution in Greenville and Commerce have been safely delivered to our office, and it looks like it might actually rain! A few of our office staff who stepped outside have even reported feeling a raindrop or two, which may or may not be attributed to wishful thinking.
In this week's paper, we mentioned a few special upcoming event. One is set to take place this Saturday: Benefit in the Park is an event to support Kamryn Smith of Commerce, a 16-year-old suffering from kidney failure, who is currently on a donor list. Everyone is invited to come and enjoy live music, food, a raffle and various fun activities for the whole family - and bring a dish and a donation for Kamryn. Proceeds will benefit the NTAF South Central Kidney Transplant Fund. To find out more, call 903-246-5724.
This edition also featured back to school dates for local districts - yes, it's inevitable, and it's rapidly approaching. It looks like everybody on our list is going back on August 22nd; the feature also lists the websites of local schools that have one (and most do), so readers can visit them for more information. Is your blood pressure already rising, just thinking about the stress and extra expense of back-to-school shopping?
