November is Adoption Awareness month. In recognition of this unique way in which to become a family, white ribbons will be worn.

I ask that all of you who are touched by adoption to please wear a white ribbon during the month of November. If you see someone wearing a white ribbon, please ask him/her how adoption has affected their life. If you are interested in learning more about adoption, call (800) 928-4303.

The Harrison County Fiscal Court voted Tuesday to help the Senior Citizens’ Center in its quest to buy a new van.

Center director Teresa Gray and Harrison County Commission on Aging representative Tom Kearns came to the court’s special meeting in Berry asking for $5,000 toward the cost.

“I’ll be right up front with you,” Kearns said. “We need help.”

He said the center bought a van under a special program in 2005, but it has been plagued with issues since.
