Here is a recap of the January 2012 Bradshaw Beat Newsletter:
- Community Lighting Contest Winner Are: 1st Place – Bill & Elnora Troutman – 140 W Jackson; 2nd Place – Tom & Elaine Vaught – 455 W Fulton; 3rd Place – Mark & Deb Briese – 415 Stockton; Thanks to all who lit up the community with outdoor lights at their homes.
- Hats Off! – A note of thanks to the Heartland School for their thoughtful and heartfelt card of “Thanks” that was sent to all of the veterans of past and present service in the local area in commemoration of Veterans’ Day. These cards were the idea of the National Honor Society at Heartland and each one was individually signed by the members, counting 28 students of the society. I know I speak for all veterans who received acknowledgement. Names were provided by Mr. Tom Vaught and addresses by the Bradshaw Post Office personnel. Thanks again for your caring. Bradshaw Veteran
- Christmas Good Will Evident – You did it again; the generosity of this community was outstanding as revealed by the $950 donated for gifts for the children of the community and beyond at the annual Children’s Christmas Party held in the community center the evening of December 16. In addition the Bradshaw Village Board supplied refreshments for all and bags of treats for the children. The Bradshaw Methodist Church followed its tradition of including something special in the bags also. Dozens of cookies were provided by Electa Preslicka.
- Meeting Notice: VFW Auxiliary at 1:30 p.m. on Monday January 9th.
