Shop ‘til you drop for the Franklin Legion
The Franklin community is coming together for a much-anticipated City-Wide Rummage Sale Extravaganza, scheduled to take place from April 3 to April 5. What began as a fundraiser hosted by the Franklin American Legion has now grown into a city-wide event, allowing residents from all over Franklin to participate by either hosting their own yard sales or renting space in the city park, all while supporting a meaningful cause. The Franklin American Legion’s rummage sale will still be held at the Old City Park Legion Hall from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day, with proceeds going directly toward providing scholarships for local students. Shoppers can expect to find a wide variety of items, both new and gently used, including household goods, clothing, books, electronics, and more. It’s an opportunity for the community to not only find unique treasures but also to make a difference in the lives of deserving students. In addition to the sale at the Legion Hall, community members are encouraged to host their own rummage sales at their homes or rent space at the city park to take part in the city-wide event. Those wishing to host a yard sale can pay a $20 advertising fee to have their sale promoted as part of the City-Wide Rummage Sale. For individuals without a suitable space of their own, booth spaces are available for rent at the city park, with 20x20 spaces priced at $60 and 10x10 spaces for $40. Both options provide a great way to get involved while maximizing community participation. Those interested in renting space at the park or registering their sale can contact Lisa Baker at (920) 304-9361 for more information. Space is limited, so early registration is encouraged. The Franklin American Legion is still accepting donations for their rummage sale and encourages anyone with gently used items to contribute. Donations of household goods, clothing, books, electronics, and other miscellaneous items are greatly appreciated. Arrangements for donation drop-offs or pick-ups can be made by contacting Skip Jones at (979) 828-1703 or reaching out to Lisa and Paul Baker at (920) 304-9361.

Breakfast “Clue In” week was a huge success
This year’s Breakfast “Clue In” Week at Bremond ISD was a resounding success. Students, teachers, and staff came together to break the case and uncover the mystery of their nutritious school breakfast. Throughout the week, the Bremond family participated in fun and engaging activities that highlighted the importance of healthy eating and the nutritional benefits of the school breakfast program. The event incorporated clues and interactive challenges, all designed to promote awareness of the tasty and healthy options available each morning. Students worked together to “solve” the mystery, discovering the key ingredients that make their breakfast both delicious and nutritious. The event not only encouraged teamwork but also helped foster a deeper understanding of the importance of a healthy start to the day. The week’s events ended with smiles, laughter, and, of course, a delicious school breakfast enjoyed by all. Congratulations to the Bremond family for cracking the case and uncovering the mystery behind their nutritious school breakfast.
