Good morning, everyone!
What a beautiful, crisp fall morning it is. A perfect morning would find each of us on a balcony with a fire in the chimney and a nice hot cup of (insert favorite beverage here) watching this awesome sunrise.
However, since we live in the real world, we are all at work trying to still get the sleep out of our eyes. I guess the good thing is that this week appears a little slower than last week, but really, does anything ever slow down? Here is what I have on my many calendars …
Today, you should see lots of EHS students roaming around our town making it a better place! Today is the EHS Community Service Day, and students will be out helping community members and organizations to spruce up and get ready for winter. If you have a chance, thank a group for their service. Thank Cory Burton for encouraging community service in our students! Thank Leonard Schoenberger for his work in coordinating the students and those in need!
Tomorrow (Wednesday) little ghosts, goblins and Cinderellas may be seen downtown. It’s the annual Story Hour Trick or Treat! If you would like the little ones to visit your business, please call Steve at the Ellis Public Library. The FFA members will be traveling to the National Conference at Louisville and will be there until the weekend. Safe travels to all involved! At 6:30pm, the resident of the Ellis Good Samaritan Center will be carving pumpkins. If you have an opportunity, stop by the Good Sam and take a look at their handiwork! There is a lot of wisdom and experience there and I bet their designs will be top-notch!
Thursday seems to be a bit of a slow day, but that is not a bad thing!
Friday will see a ton of activity First of all, it’s Halloween! Every kid or kid at heart will be waiting for the chance to dawn their costumes and head out for Trick or Treating. The school parties will kick off an afternoon and evening full of fun. Don’t forget to Trick or Treat these places after school!
• Ellis Good Samaritan Center will Meet the Spooks from 3-4:30pm
• Ellis Chamber of Commerce invites everyone to the Possessed Pond at the Alliance Office from 3-4:30pm
• Spook Villa (Spruce Villa) will be ready to greet the Trick or Treaters from 3:30 – 5:30pm
• Arthur’s Pizza and the Ellis Public Library will also welcome kids after school
As you head to the Ellis Football Game on Friday, remember it’s Senior Night! Also, bring the kids in their costumes and take them to the parking lot during half time for Trunk or Treat! It will be a frightfully good time!
One of the weirdest things on my calendar is a blank Saturday! I’ve got nothing listed. Maybe that’s a good thing, but I’m sure by the end of the day, something will pop up.
Please let me know if I’ve missed something, it seems like too calm of a week!
Make it a great day!
