YOU ARE INVITED TO A SEND-OFF PARTY!

Daniel well as he prepares to leave for the Craft Academy in Morehead. The gathering will be held on Sunday, July 30, from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m., in Ascension's parish hall.
The Craft Academy for Excellence in Science and Mathematics is a dual-credit residential high school for academically exceptional Kentucky students, housed on the campus of Morehead State University.

Please join us for a happy send-off!

A change to Kroger Community Rewards was announced this week: In past years, August 1st began the "re-enrollment" period. Effective immediately, all participants will now "roll over" automatically and stay enrolled in their chosen organization, instead of having to re-enroll each year. So if you are already enrolled, you need to do nothing to keep your current choice.
Enrollment for NEW participants will work the same way as the past. Sign up at
www.kroger.com or call 1-800-KROGERS,
option 3.
