Thank you to all who came out to the chili feed last Saturday night, November 30, at the Winnett Bar. This was a fundraiser to help out Melissa Bohn. After several surgeries in 4 days, plus the time she has had to be in the hospital and Advanced Care, this was a great way for the community to show they care and want to help out. She is still in Billings at Advanced Care. We have such a caring community. We all came out in force whether to donate items for the silent auction, or bake homemade goodies for the dessert auction, and to bid on everything available, to show we care and want to help Melissa. Thank you all!
