San Jacinto County Women's League held their annual Style Show Fundraiser last Thursday. Twelve members modeled clothes from Chico's of Kingwood, clothes they had chosen for themselves from the store. The lunch was catered by Mary Gray Catering and was delicious as always, Mary caters the Women's League lunches. The Silent Auction was a wonderful array of everything from gardening tools, fishing gear, baked goods and decorative items to name just a few of the categories. President Mary Ann Pittman welcomed everyone to the show in the San Jacinto County Shelter and Sherry Roberts gave the invocation. Judy Chatham was in charge of the Auction and everyone did a great job in making this a huge success. Thank you Lisa Wright who designed the programs and table decorations! I will include more about the Style Show next week.

Shepherd Chamber of Commerce is planning for the July 4 event. Unexpectedly we have the opportunity to have fireworks on July 4. instead of earlier. This is good news since we want to make this even more special for everyone since it is the 250th Birthday of our country. It will be as usual at the Community Center and outside under the Pavilion roof. The new Children's Playground will be an added attraction but games will be played, contests will be held, vendors will sell and music will fill the air. If you want to be a part of this, call the Chamber at the number below or text me. The American Legion will perform the opening ceremony for us.
