Community NewsPotts Camp
News Brotherhood Banquet held at First Baptist Church Saturday On Father’s Day, I remembered my wonderful father, Benton Potts, a depot agent for 40 years; he told us stories about the past years in Potts Camp, as we sat on the front porch at night. He always said the blessing before each meal, and rode us where we needed to go in his old T model and A Model Fords. We loved him! Snow Lake
