Spring events and festival flyers on Facebook, newspapers, and billboards are springing up everywhere. Facebook and other social media are amazing tools to advertise events, but I still like printed material that I see in windows and on buildings. So, I will list events by date so you can take a picture and keep them in your phone or wallet for future reference.

March 28, Most Holy Trinity Catholic Church Lent Dinner
Last week was Spring Break, and Trinity County was fortunate to have wonderful weather and an awesome week of events. However, the Midwest was not so lucky and 40 people lost their lives due to more than 300 tornadoes occurring in their states. We are forecasted for another week of good weather, and we are thankful.
See you soon at the Fish Fry.
