HARRISVILLE —
I am getting my list done for the Harrisville Community Day parade on July 4th.
The greater the number of participants, the more the better the parade will be.
The Community Day Committee still needs crafters (non-food). If you want to send a business card, we will put you in our program book. If you want you can make any type of donation for the Chinese auction or want to participate in the parade or other events, or have questions please call me at 724-967-4440.
We are also looking for any old pictures of Harrisville for part of our program. We will make copies of the pictures and give them back. We would like to have them by June 30 or sooner.
