With summer now poised to begin in earnest, it is once again time to gear up for the annual Shelton Independence Day celebration. Organizers are encouraged to contact the Clipper at info@clipperpubco. com as soon as possible with details on events being planned for the day.
Wood River Rural School and OPAA! will be offering free breakfast and lunch for any child, aged 18 and under, to take home from June 23 through August 1. Children do not need to qualify for the Free/Reduced Lunch Program or even be students of Wood River Schools! Children will be required to sign up, to help with food preparation. Meals will be picked up from the Wood River Elementary Cafeteria, 1003 Lilly Street, one to two times a week. Children must come on the pick up day and be accompanied by an adult to make sure food is properly refrigerated, once it leaves the school.
The Wood River Methodist Church will host a Red Cross Bloodmobile on Tuesday, June 10, at the Wood River Community Center from 12:00 noon to 6:00 p.m. This is the first bloodmobile since held at the high school where there was a great outcome, so please help keep up the number of donors. All of the students that gave at the school are encouraged to continue giving.
Memorial Day services were held Monday, despite the looming wet weather. Annual ceremonies at Wood River, Gibbon, and Shelton went on as scheduled to honor our fallen service men and women and also to honor those veterans and current service members among us.
