Each month the Desoto VFW has a Jam Session on the last Sunday of the month starting at 1:00 pm 

Memorial Day weekend was no exception. It brought out a record number of not only musicians but also a better than average crowd to enjoy the music.

THIRTY YEARS AND COUNTING

Thirty Years completed Sept 29th 2015

.

It's hard to believe that there has been this much time that has passed  I am fortunate to be alive and to have lived this much life. It wouldn't have been possible had I continued with drinking.

Many may laugh and some still disbelieve why anyone would ever want to stop. I've always been singled out and made the example when it came to my rebellious ways.  To them I say in humor that I am the result of when you quit drugs and alcohol.

For me it was much easier to stop. I seen that in the long run at the rate I was going, I wouldn't  have

lived this long and more than likely would have killed someone else in the process.

I celebrate this day because I've been successful. I can enjoy another day without having to have to drink to do it. May you all have the fortune and the courage to be different regardless of what others think.  God has surely blessed me and may you all find Him even  when you aren't in need.

On Saturday afternoon September 26th, Cedar Hill V.F.W. hosted what hopefully will come to known as an Annual event known as  the "Cedar Hill Community Days". It  benefits the Cedar Hill Fire Association.

Hundreds of people from Jefferson County and  the surrounding area enjoyed the friendly family festivities.  There were multiple food vendors, games, raffles and a host of Choreographed Dance routines.

There were all sorts of crafts and activities including a Wedding, a Car Show and Live Music.

With the success of this first time event, it's hard to imagine there wouldnn't be another
