~ Red Ribbon Rally will be Tuesday, October 23. The coffee will be ready at 7:00 and the Rally starts at 7:15 (yes, that’s a.m.) in the Macy’s parking lot at the Shops at Willow Bend. It’s a lot of fun for the kids and a great message so be planning your posters and craziest hair. This year’s theme is “Dream Big… No Drugs”.
