An umbrella was taken on Saturday, August 8th, at George Clem School during the clean-up of our 8th of August Freedom Day Celebration. It's described as black and blue, with 'GOLF' inscribed on it.

This umbrella has sentimental value because it belonged to the father of my son-in-law (a good friend of mine), who has passed away. We thought we had tracked it down, but that led nowhere. If anyone has any information regarding this, please contact me at (423) 415-0276.

Thank you,

Candi Gillespie
