We're not the only ones thinking about Christmas- did you see Holly MerryMaker at Little Debbie this morning???

It's never too early to enter the best Christmas parade around- email [email protected] for an entry form!

Good morning Stuarts Draft! I don’t know if you’ve been on 340 yet this morning. If so, you saw Holly Mary Christmas Tree. She’ll be out in front of the McKee Bakery store for about another hour. Swing by with the kids!

Also, the McKee Bakery store is collecting school supplies for Stuff The Bus. Today and tomorrow you can drop your donations there.

I need to be quick this morning, so no particular order or chitchat today 😊.

SDHS Girls Basketball is looking to hire an assistant coach. Contact Coach Siebert if you’re interested.

Does anyone know where Shelby the cake decorating lady from Food Lion went to work? She has some devoted customers who would love for her to continue to do their family cakes. Anyone know Shelby?

Best wishes to Pam & Eric Stephenson as they move from Draft to France. “Au revoir” friends🩷.

The lawn party and parades are coming up next weekend. Yep, already. Last year, my neighbor Ken Moore mowed and weeded Draft Ave to clear areas for us all to watch the parade. This year Gibson Clean Cut Lawn Care had offered to do that. But when Jamie Gibson was down there yesterday letting residents know that his crew would be mowing and weeding the sidewalk areas, apparently several residents don’t want the areas in front of their house cleaned up - and weren’t super nice about it. Again I ask “What the heck is wrong with people???” I hope they’ll clean it up themselves by next week, but I’m not super hopeful☹️.

It’s Community Market Day! And a gorgeous day for it. 4:00-7:00pm up by the pool on Edgewood. Please support our Community Market and local vendors.

Happy birthday to Chad McAlister & Doug Simmers!

Have a good one. See you at the Market!
