Let’s Clean up Faith!!

Saturday, March 29th, 2008

Horizons wants to clean up our community! We are looking for volunteer groups such as churches, 4-H & other clubs, etc. Or individuals interested in helping us out. Some activities include painting, raking, planting flowers, general clean up, & repair. We would like to spruce up our city park, paint some poles & signs, & distribute some garbage barrels & flower planters around town. We would also like volunteers to help the elderly & others get prepared for April’s ‘City Wide Clean-Up Month’. This would possibly include cleaning yards, moving some large objects, and other various chores. If interested in helping to make our community a more beautiful place or would like to receive some help sprucing up your property, please contact Debbie Brown at the city office at 967-2261 or Jon or Katrina Collins, in the evening, at 967-2834.

Thank you for your cooperation in helping to clean up our community.

From February 11th to the 14th, the FHS Student Council sold and delivered Valentine grams to the students at Faith school.  This is a new project for the student council only in its 2nd year as an SDSCA (South Dakota Student Council Association) member, and they did well.  The total profit from the project was $125 which will be donated to the Children’s Miracle Network. This is an ongoing project of the SDSCA and at last year’s leadership conference $18,113 was donated by all participating student councils in SD. This year’s donation will be presented at a ceremony with all other student council’s from the around the state at the SDSCA State Leadership Conference in Pierre on April 1st 2008.  Great job guys!
