birthday celebration was for Gabriel Engle, son of Ashley Engle.
Prom was held
at Hume on April 11. The promenade is
always so nice and the kids are dressed so beautifully. Thanks to all those who work so hard with the
kids and the after prom.
The Hume Fair
Association is looking for Rodeo Queen Candidates and Prince/Princess
Candidates for the 2013 Hume Fair.
Deadline for sign up is May 30, 2013.
Last year we started the future community leader’s page in our fair
paper and we are going to be doing it again this year. So if you are interested in your children or
grandchildren’s pictures to be featured in this section, please call
660-643-7637 or 7120 for more information.
The theme for this year is: Hume Fair or Bust “Digging for the Good
Times”. Hume Fair dates are July 30 through
August 3, 2013.
We always
hold a contest for the Hume School Students to design a cover for the front
page of the Hume Fair paper. Last year the designs were so great we picked out
a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place in the older group
and the younger group and then picked out the overall winner for the front
cover. They are busy working this into
their schedule as school winds down for the year. On May 10 at 3:00 p.m. the
Fair Board will serve DQ ice cream as a special treat and thank you for all the
students’ hard work. This has been an awesome opportunity to get the kids
involved in preparing for the Hume Fair.
Hopefully this will help in some small way to help them be involved in
the communities they live in when they are older. Volunteers are always needed to help keep any
community going!
If anyone has
any news items they would like to share, please let me know. Have a good week!
