Water season is here

It’s officially Memorial Day Weekend. The entire country honors and remembers the men and women who died while serving in the U.S. military. Many love to be around water so some head to the beach while others head north to Rayburn Country and even Toledo Bend.

Delivering a difference

The heart of Nutrition and Services for Seniors lies in the home delivered meals program, better known as Meals on Wheels. Since 1983, this service alone has provided more than 18 million hot, noon-time meals to hungry seniors and homebound, disabled adults in Jefferson and Hardin counties.
