Montgomery events
Since you are reading this, you are obviously interested in what’s going
on in Montgomery and surrounding areas including Elimsport, Allenwood,
and Watsontown. It’s been four years since I started writing this
column and every week, I have been surprised with the number of
activities that are available to us locally. Some of you may already
know that I will be leaving the area soon as my husband and I are in the
process of making a permanent move to South Carolina. That will leave
the position of writer of this column vacant and I am asking that you
consider taking on this venture. You will find it rewarding and it takes
just an hour or so of your time every week. Contact Barb Barrett here at
the Luminary for more information.
