LATEST NEWS
The Cross Plains computer lab has
been the starting point for many talented
individuals. There are artists who use the computer
lab to express themselves by creating beautiful
artwork, while others enjoy delighting their family
and friends with greeting cards they have designed.
During a recent discussion with Stacy Davidson, I
asked him what his “dream job” was, and
discovered he had a plan that also included the
computer lab. Stacy said he wanted to make and sell
custom printed T-shirts.

Cross Plains Community Partner Golf Tournament
The Andre Johnson Memorial Golf Tournament to benefit Cross Plains Community Partner was held on May 20that Nob North Golf Course. We are very grateful to everyone that helped to make the day a success. The support of the community and all those that gave items for our auction, the golf committee, and the sponsors were all very much appreciated. The monies raised from the tournament will be used to assist with a variety of projects, such as new tables and chairs in the production area, arts and crafts supplies, and assistance with transportation cost so that people can continue to participate in activities that keep them connected to the community. Thanks to all those that helped to make the day a success and for continuing to support the men and women served by Cross Plains Community Partner. |
