Marshall This Week: Festival, yard/bake sale Oct. 4
Last Friday, the weekend started off with a bang. The Marshall Ruritans had their monthly dance with the best attendance so far. The building was filled with people of the community, and fun was had by all.
The next dance will be a Halloween theme, and everyone is encouraged to dress up for the chance to win prizes.
The Marshall United Methodist Preschool will be having its annual Fall Festival from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. this Saturday, Oct. 4.
The festival will include games, a bake sale, cake walks, silent auction, door prizes, and food. Please mark your calendars to join them this weekend and support your hometown preschool. The event will be held rain or shine.
Also this weekend, Grace Bible Church is having a yard and bake sale 8 a.m. to noon Saturday, Oct. 4, with 25 percent of all funds being donated to the church's benevolence fund.
