Miller Grove News by Brandon Young 10/21/14

The biggest news in the community this week is the school’s annual Fall Carnival. Please make plans to attend this Friday night. There will be stew and chili served as the evening meal, games and booths in the old gym, and later BINGO for all ages. As always, this is a great fundraiser for the school. Each individual class and the PTO benefits greatly from the Fall Carnival. The money made at this fundraiser helps the students and PTO to have money to run on until next year at this time. So, come on out and have a big bowl of Lewis Russell’s famous stew and the chili I am going to make and have a good time supporting our local school.
