Thanks to Jessica Roush

Thanks to Jessica Roush for the portrait you see to the right of this post on my blog. The same photo you see will also appear in my monthly newspaper article. Jessica was great to work with, and I encourage anybody looking for any photography needs to stop into Roush Photography. The business is located next to Pioneer Pharmacy on 5th street in downtown Roscommon.

Thanks to North Central Area Credit Union

I would like to thank North Central Area Credit Union for its generous donation of $1,584 to our Flowers in the Village Committee. It is a tremendous boost for the community!

"Employees of North Central Area Credit Union donate $1,584 to Roscommon's Flowers in the Village project. Pictured are Kelly Barton, Roscommon branch manager, and employees from NCACU with Village Manager Tom Gromek, Village Clerk Kathy Murphy (accepting check from Barton) and Barb Stauffer, who was instrumental in starting the flower fund many years ago. NCACU employees wear jeans and casual credit union shirts every Friday and pay $2. The money is collected for the year with a community or charity event in mind. At the end of the year, the credit union matches what the branch has raised, and the employees choose where to donate their money."
