The Big Sandy Mountaineer -

The Christmas Stroll’s annual raffle/craft/bake sale in City Hall brought many wonderful opportunities to find that perfect, unique Christmas present.

The new library fund- raising committee was delighted to raise $650 on their several baskets and Ann’s beautiful fabric snowflakes. The lucky winners were:

“Rest And Relaxation” novel and chocolates and drink, donated by Vicki Silvan, won by Dolly Pursley, “Rest and Relaxation” novel and chocolates and drink, donated by Vicki Silvan won by Reggie Jappe, “Kamut Products” oil, soap, snacks and flour donated by Ann Quinn won by Jeremy Echols, “Select Wiones and Beers” donated by Dee PRibyl won by Karla Whetham, “Coffee Lovers” beans Keurig cups, and mugs donated by Dee Pribyl won by Glenn Ophus, “Christmas Quilted table runner” donated by Twila Cline won by Del Otto, “Turkey and Ham Holiday Combo” donated by Marla Ray won by Dee Lohse.

We appreciate everyone who purchased raffle tickets or who just stopped by with a donation.

The “Money Mile” is coming alone. Remember that $2.00 buys a foot of the mile. Everyone can be part of helping build this new library. We have received several generous donations since our last update, and we continue to work on grants.

As the steel framework continues to be put in place, the hole on Main Street will begin to transform onto a highly anticipated facility.
