25th Annual Turkey Dinner, St. John: Sunday, Oct. 16, 12 - 1:30 pm, St. John’s Catholic Parish is your host at the Catholic Witt Center, 609 E. 4th
Yum. Yum. Yum. This dinner deserves three yums for sure. $8 for adults and only $5 for K-6 and of course it’s free for 5 yrs old and younger. You’ll get your belly full here but no napping yet or you’ll miss out on the great prizes that will be won. First prize is a beautiful Queen size quilt that we might need to borrow as our office is a little drafty or maybe you’ll win the $100 cash - which would also keep us warm here. There’s plenty of other prizes and really - the best part is that EVERYONE is welcome!
UMW Bazaar, St. John: Monday, Oct. 19, 4:30 pm to 7 pm, United Methodist Church on 1st Street in St. John
The fine folks of the UMW - the United Methodist Women in St. John - are probably some of the best cooks in the county. For only $6 for 10 yrs and older - you’ll enjoy the best soups, sandwich and pies ($3 for 9 and younger).
But this is also a bazaar so you can do your shopping for beautiful hand crafted items: last year we bought beautiful embroidered (no one embroiders anymore!) cup towels, wonderful knitted hats, a cool book mark and lots of other items. PLUS....you’ll also browse the large variety of home made breads, cakes -pineapple upside sold out early last year :-( - some of those scrumptious pies to take home plus pickles, sandhill plum jams, okras, and tons more. Mark your shopping list now and plan on attending.
49th Annual Turkey Supper, Belpre: Wednesday, Oct. 26, St. Bernard’s Parish Hall, 5 pm ‘til the food runs out
