The days of winter are clicking on by and next week February will make its appearance. We all can look forward to the coming spring, a time for a new beginning and hope for a brighter year. I’m all for that.
The Francisco Volunteer Fire Department will hold its annual Chicken Stew fund-raiser this Saturday at the Fire Department, at 7104 N.C. Highway 89 West. This is a drive-thru event so you don’t even have to get out of your car. For a $10 donation, you’ll receive a quart of wonderful chicken stew, crackers and homemade dessert.
