Gadsby/Westwoods
A busy time in the Gadsby area with Seniors Week. The county, in conjunction with the Village of Gadsby, presented our seniors with a fruit tray. County councilor Greggory Jackson thanked the seniors and commended them on the path they set for the next generation of volunteers they raised. Over 20 people were there to enjoy the day.

Gordon and Shirley Reynolds, along with Joyce and Bill Hansel, drove to Byemoor to attend Bev and Happy Davis’ 50th wedding anniversary on Saturday evening.

This is a manmade resort and a great getaway for all.
