Take a look at the new Privacy Fence along the north lot line at the Casey UMC. It is beautiful. Thank you to everyone who made a contribution to it - monetary or muscle.
You might think of a landscaping addition to place near the fence. Flowers, bushes, bench, etc. It's on a nice south facing rise that gets a bit of afternoon sun. It has great possibilities.Don't forget to place your order for Superbowl Sandwich and trimmings.
