The Ladies of the Cross met last Wednesday in the hall at Holy Cross Catholic Church. The hostesses served a delicious dinner before the program was introduced, and a blessing was offered.

An exciting and informative presentation on chair yoga was given, which was appropriate for many of us! Allison G. Willis teaches free chair yoga classes at the senior citizens center at the park.

Hostesses for the meeting were Gail Allen, Beth Dunn, Ginger Stovall, Tiffany Vrbicky, and Denise Crenshaw

Neshoba Central’s Alligator Class enjoyed “Goodies with Grands.” Their grandparents came to visit the classroom, where they sang a sweet song and ate lots of sweet treats. It was a very sweet activity!

One of Montana’s nicknames is Big Sky Country, and Sid and Mickie Williams found this to be a very appropriate name! They recently visited their son, John, at the Bar W Guest Ranch in White Fish, Montana, where he works. The scenery is amazing!

They had a fantastic time hauling hay and riding horses, going on trail rides and enjoying ranch life with the gorgeous sky above them. It was a memorable vacation!
