Becky Cupp and Kay and Laura Wheeler visited Saturday afternoon with Barbara Read in Southaven.

Please don’t forget to register your children at City Hall for the Dizzy Dean Baseball/Softball League by this Friday, March 7. The fee to play is $20/child and $10 each additional child in the family. The ages to play range from 3 - 16, so I am sure most of you have at least one child who would fall into that age category. T-ball is offered, coach-pitch, fastpitch softball and baseball.

There is something for everyone and every age! Help our city make this a worthwhile venture. It cannot happen without the support from our community. With parental support and child participation, we can make this program a success! Please get your child or children registered!

Spring break is upon us! Hard to imagine with the weather acting like it is that spring is right around the corner! I hope everyone has a fun and safe holiday, coming back on St. Patrick’s Day raring to go! Marshall Academy’s PTC is hosting a Rotel chicken dinner on March 17 from 5 - 7 p.m. with tickets only costing $5 each. The art department has been working diligently in creating pieces which will be displayed throughout the school. There is also going to be a silent auction with fabulous items such as a “Room Makeover,” personalized dinner plates, a guided hunt for two and many others. Come on down, eat and enjoy a fun-filled night! Shoot me an email if you are interested in purchasing dinner tickets. Where else can you get a well-balanced meal and the extra activities for only $5 a plate? Hope to see you there!
