Getting your Estate Planning in Order
Tuesday, September 10
Retirement Ready is a series of workshops being offered
at the Springdale Community Center. The third workshop
will be offered September 10th at 2:00 p.m. or 7:00 p.m.
It’s important to have a plan in place, implement
your plan, and make sure others know about it.
Procrastination is the biggest enemy to estate planning.
Take action now and learn how to plan so you avoid
problems in the future.
Appalachian Story Time
Thursday, September 12 2:00 p.m.
"Imagine yourself in the past” - say, one hundred years ago on the porch of a mountainside cabin after the day's work is
complete. This twilight time of day is typically when songsters
and storytellers weave their magic.
To register for this free workshop call 346-3910 by
September 9. Light refreshments will be served.
Russ and Barb Childers use fiddle, banjo, dulcimer – and a few
surprises – to reveal the memories held in the squares of their fullsize Story Quilt. Audience members choose from 12 different
designs on the 65” x 45” Story Quilt; and Russ & Barb will tell a
story, proverb, folk belief, song, or dance about the design. Each
pattern offers a uniquely interactive fun-filled history lesson.
