ELKMONT, Ala. (WAFF) - Some exciting news for those in Elkmont in need of child care: There’s a new day care facility!
About a year and a half ago the Chamber of Commerce realized there was a dire need for child care in the area. That’s when Friendship North Church decided to take action.
Friendship North Pastor Steve Dorning says the center will hold up to 75 children from infants, to 4 years old. He says in rural areas like Elkmont, there are not enough daycare centers.
