For Yancey residents...
Mark Friday, October 17 on your calendars for another great RuthFest - a cornbread-making contest. There will be cash prizes for the winners, and raffle prizes or door prizes for attendees (who get to eat the cornbread and some chili after the judging!)
Ruth’s family and I met yesterday and have decided to make it an annual event. This year’s beneficiaries are two hurricane relief agencies run by Ruth’s granddaughter, Dr. Taylor Kirkman and her husband Travis Kirkman. Future RuthFest recipients will be determined by the family; your suggestions are welcome.
We’ve got the Town Center reserved, with live music from several local bands. When the schedule has gelled a bit more, I’ll keep you informed on ticket prices and door-opening times.
