Pinwheels for spin for Patsy’s House
April is Child Abuse Prevention and Awareness Month and to bring that issue to the public’s attention, there will be a kick-off event, Pinwheels for Patsy’s House, at the Montague County Courthouse on April 11.
Patsy’s House, which operates a satellite office in Bowie, joins with the Montague County Child Welfare Board to place 195 pinwheels in the ground at the courthouse prior to the event 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.
This 195 represents confirmed child abuse cases in Montague. For each donation of $20, a pinwheel will be pulled out of the ground.
Misty Spring, manager of the Bowie office, said the goal is to remove every pinwheel, symbolically putting an end to child abuse one pinwheel at a time.
Visit noradsanta.org to track Santa as he heads out on his worldwide trek tomorrow night. The site has games and other fun activities for the entire family before the kids head off to bed and sleep before the Big Guy arrives in Texas.
Enjoy a fish fry and live music concert on Jan. 4 all to support the 4-H and FFA youth of Montague County as they compete in the annual youth fair.
The annual Bowie fish fry for the Bowie buyers group will begin serving at 5:30 p.m. at the Bowie Community Center. Cost is $10 per plate. There will be a live auction at 7 p.m.
The evening’s concert will feature Dax Davis. Live music begins at 8:30 p.m. with the Davis concert at 9:30 p.m. Cost for the concert is $25 per ticket and $20 for a student, or $300 for a reserved table for eight.
Tickets are available at Fashion Floors, 202 N. Smythe or call 872-2468.
