WHITE BIRD — The 1st annual trunk or treat was an absolute blast, with at least 20 kids who attended! We are so grateful to all who attended, participated, and made this possible. A huge thank you to The White Bird Area Rec. District for donating the building, candy, drinks, setting up and being amazing (Charlotte Sickels). Also, a huge thank you to the White Bird Volunteer Fire Department for donating their time, fire engine, candy, hot dogs and popcorn. A big thank you to Char Madden for donating the hot dog buns, Millie Robinett for donating money, Velma for donating hot dogs, as well, my parents, Debbi and Tom Myers for making the toppings for the candied apples and donating the donuts for Donuts on a String, Darla Brumley for donating the apples, Vicki Main for donating prizes for the kids, and everyone else who showed up in costumes, handed out candy and decorated their vehicles. We cannot wait until next year!
What a great turnout for our community potluck this past Sunday. We had more than 60 people attend or pick up food. The town celebrated Koleson Kiehn’s 6th birthday, too. He wanted his grandmother, Shaunya, to bake him a chocolate cake with buttercream frosting. The cake was a hit with all the kids who attended. The next community gathering is set for Sunday, Dec. 7, at 3 p.m. at the IOOF Hall. We will start games (thinking Bingo) at 3 p.m. with an Italian-themed dinner, “Endless Pastabilities” to follow. There is a sign-up sheet if you choose to bring a dish or just show up and have a great time with community members. We had a few participants who are new to the community, which is always nice to see. Again, anyone is welcome!
The White Bird Days Volunteer Group held its November meeting. A great deal was discussed, with Mayor Homer Brown attending, who was able to add information to the meeting, such as “dos and don’ts,” ideas and input on laws. There were roughly 15 in attendance, with various ideas being solidified. Our next meeting will be at the IOOF Hall on Dec. 7, at 2 p.m. This is a community group that gathers ideas to add to White Bird Days. All are welcome.
