Area Announcements:

MEDICAL LAKE - Medical Lake Dollars for Scholars (MLDFS) will be holding their annual Super Yard Sale. As with everything post-COVID, they’ve had to make some changes.

The group would typically have a space to hold donations, but they lost the space after COVID

This year, they are setting up tables two days early, on May 11 & 12, and asking donors to bring their items in a drive-through fashion to us.

The sale will then be May 13 & 14 at the MLHS baseball field parking lot. Come out and see us if you can. MLDFS is a 501c3 non-profit organization. We have distributed over $610,000 in scholarships to graduating MLHS seniors according to Sherry Niblock MLDFS Scholarship Chair

Hours for drop off on the 11th are noon - 6:00, on the 12th 9 a.m. – 6 p.m., people can drop off.

The sale runs from 7:00am - 6:00pm on Friday the 13th & 7:00am - 4:00pm on Saturday the 14th.

CHENEY - The West Plains Angels will be holding an Arts and Crafts Fair on Saturday May 21 in the parking lot for the local second hand store “Deals and Steals”.

Local artists and vendors will have their work on display, and the benefits will go to a Senior Night Celebration for the Medical Lake High School Seniors at Wonderland.
