Well, it’s that time of year again. Time change.
Tonight, most parts of the country will turn their clocks BACK. So if it’s 2 a.m., it becomes 1 a.m. again.
Now that’s a deal, an extra hour of sleep.
By the way, using the excuse of, “I forgot to set my clock” won’t justify missing Church in the morning. It would only explain why someone was there an hour TOO EARLY.
So, see you in Church.
Please join us for “Trick or Treating at the Football Game”.
The Pirate Booster Club and other organizations will be handing out candy beginning at 6:30, Friday night, before the Drew Central Pirates take on Fouke.
Children are encouraged to wear their costumes. The Lady Pirates basketball team will also have an area set up where you can have your picture made with the Pirate mascot for $2.

The students researched the design for the birdhouses. They found out how much wood they needed and what size each part should be. The wood was donated by Mr. Al Beaty.
