Thank you everyone who helped and contributed to this year`s Spoon River Scenic Drive. We had a wonderful, successful year all around. We had many, many volunteers from helping set up, making desserts, preping, cooking, cleaning and serving the food. God bless each and every one of you!! We also had wonderful help from our youth and great fellowship. We were able to raise around $2,400 to help contribute to our expensive fuel bills throughout the winter months. Thanks again! Angel
