Somerville news
I hope everyone had a great week. The tornadoes are two weeks past, but let us contine to remember all those who suffered loss during this time.
The Somerville Celebra-tion was a huge success. Despite the cool weather, there was a large turnout of people. There was a lot to be enjoyed by all ages. The pancake breakfast, food vendors, childrens play area, the music, tractor show, door prizes, and just some good fellowship among old-time friends were enjoyed by all who attended. A special thanks go out to the Cattlemen’s Association, town hall members, volunteer firefighters, County EMS, Ray and Regina Long, Somerville police officers and reserves, entertainers, those who donated door prizes, Somerville Baptist for the children’s area, Ronnie Bullard for pony rides and everyone who worked so hard to make the event a success.
