Hands-On Success with Christmas Decor
The Richer Recreation Committee hosted a successful wreath making workshop on Saturday. Two dozen people spent some time taking their holiday decorating ideas to the next level. The event was held to raise money to add to the Richer Community Club’s Brent Wery Memorial Bursary Fund. The Wery family and their volunteer “elves”, who organized the activity, want to thank the participants and those who also pre-ordered ready made wreaths for their help in raising $537 from the day.
