Your view: Job well done

Thursday, June 28, 2007

Congratulations to the Big Prairie Jaycees for their community service - again! This group did an excellent job with the Survivor Dinner for Relay for Life in New Madrid County last Thursday evening.

The food was wonderful, the atmosphere was relaxing and enjoyable, the service was topnotch and the unselfish approach to helping people in the community is exemplary.

This group is well-known for their concern for people in the surrounding area, but this was a fine example to set for other towns to follow in the years of Relay ahead.

Thanks also to Mary Lois Henry, Sallie Duenne and the rest of the Survivorship Committee, to Monica Wood for the outstanding entertainment, to those sponsors who donated door prizes, to American Cancer Society staff member, Jo Beth Scherer, but especially to the Big Prairie Jaycees!

In gratitude,

Cathey Daniels
