Panthers for sale

I have Hobbs school yearbooks from 1958 - 1966 that I'm selling for $35 each. Just contact me at hobbsholler@yahoo.com if you would like to buy one.

The Sweetwater City County Library held the Annual Book Sale this weekend. I bought three bags for four dollars. It was held in the Coliseum Annex.

Next weekend there will be a STTAR workday at the Sweetwater Texas Theatre. It will be Saturday, April 25, 9 a.m to noon. They'll be demo-ing in the lobby, getting inventory of items in the offices, and cleaning up trash.

Everyone is invited to attend and bring gloves, tools, whatever you think you might need. They need as many strong backs as they can get. Some man-sized work will be going on in the lobby. They're wanting to tear that paneling out and see what's behind it.

Now that you have more Sweetwater news than you can stand, here's what went on in Fisher County, according to the April 16, 2009 issue of the Roby Star Record / Rotan Advance:
