WATSON
For the second year in a row, the Holly Springs/Hernando National Guard families were treated to a Christmas dinner, fun and gifts by lots of volunteer efforts and donations from corporate sponsors and everyday folks. Last Christmas the Guardsmen were at the celebration. This year only a couple were in attendance because they have been deployed since spring to Iraq. The big event for the children, wives, mothers and fathers of the Guardsmen was a project of the Clydesdale Christmas Store and hosted by the Collins-Hurdle VFW Post 5697.

They enjoyed face paintings, balloons, and a magic show and dinner before sitting on Santa’s knee. Thefts on rise; be on watch By SUE
