Family fun, music, food and more Friday and Saturday

God gave you a gift of 86,400 seconds today. Have you used one to say “thank you?” — William A. Ward
Lilac Days is this Friday and Saturday.  A huge thank you to our sponsors: Queen Bee Gardens, Big Horn Co-op, Big Horn REA, Security State Bank and TCT.
