Wood River Senior Center and Ministerial Association receive Heritage Bank donation

Heritage Bank and Heritage Insurance continue to give back to all of their local communities through the Heritage Cares Program. Employees in all twelve branches chip in five dollars to wear jeans to work Fridays and the bank matches their gift. March was Heritage Bank – Wood River’s month to choose which local charities benefit from the program. Wood River employees chose to give $360 to the Wood River Senior Center to sponsor a decorated cake for their monthly celebrations and $210 to the Wood River Ministerial Association Food Pantry backpack program for elementary school children.

Dry windy conditions state-wide have left fields open for area producers to begin their spring field work. According to the United States Department of Agriculture’s National Agricultural Statistic’s Service, two percent of corn has been planted which is equal to corn planted at this point last year. Dry conditions have also contributed to topsoil moisture supplies being rated at twenty-four percent very short, forty-four percent short, and thirty-two percent adequate. (–photo by Dennis Walker)
