Have you noticed these boxes around town? It is an initiative by Mount Rogers, named after Mr. William Fields, to help those in our community who may just need a little something to get them through the day. They are stocked with shampoo, deodorant, and other necessities. Next Wednesday, August 30th, WJHL TV will be broadcasting live here to celebrate their 70th birthday and we will be giving 100% of our no-bake cookie proceeds to help stock the boxes. So, please come down and show your support and love! We live in a not only beautiful spot of the country, but a caring and kind one too!❤️
Oh…and it’s Potato soup day today!
