At this time, I also want to mention the Beta Club. This group is amazing at providing volunteering all around our community. I know they are great about helping the Civic Club when needed, as well as helping the VFW out at their Friday Fish Fry. All of this helps support our community and is very much appreciated. Thanks Beta Club for not only serving, but doing it with a smile and enthusiasm! Our community organizations are very grateful for you!
