Haywood Movement is “on the move” and has set Saturday, August 4, for the first event. There is still a lot of planning to do and volunteers are needed. Several areas, such as Farmer’s Market, health related booths, skateboard, biking and walking areas, and arts and crafts vendors are in need of participants. The event is designed to help bring Brownsville and Haywood County downtown for fun, fellowship and a whole host of possibilities – a very worthwhile project that needs your help to work. Best of all, it’s all free. Please e-mail haywoodmovement@bellsouth.net to find out what you can do to help or if you would like to have a booth. Booth applications are also available online.

The Boys and Girls Club announced this week that Dr. Cynthia Bond Hopson will be the guest speaker at their annual Steak N’ Burger Dinner August 30. Dr. Hopson is a very well-known Haywood County native and author. If you haven’t met her, this is the perfect opportunity plus you’ll be helping a good cause. Tables and individual tickets are available, call 731-772-0552 to reserve your seat or for more information.
