The students in Mrs. Kailey Craft’s second grade class at Dozier Elementary ended the year as published authors! Recently, they chose an animal to research, then wrote about the animal and illustrated a picture to go with it. On May 17, 2024, they had a book signing party where each student was able to read their writing to the class and sign everyone’s book.

Yes, it’s that week again. Six of us in a lovely condominium at Perdido Key.
I’ve had four sunny, breezy days on a beach chair with an umbrella. I don’t go out in direct sun, but I am now tan-ish. We drove in Sunday, May 26, and had junk food for dinner since we had a very filling lunch at Half-Shell in Gulf Port, Mississippi. I am writing my column indoors Thursday in the air-conditioned, sandless condo.
We decided long ago and repeated many times that we would cut back the massive amount of food we brought and definitely cut back on cooking while here. Not so!

Congratulations to Kinsey Waits, the recipient of the Vermilion Farm Bureau Federation Scholarship in the amount of $1000. Farm Bureau is the state’s largest general farm organization representing farmers, ranchers and rural residents. Because we are a membership based organization, a very large number of our members are not farmers and ranchers, therefore; we have chosen to provide a scholarship to a graduating senior that is interested in a field of study outside of agriculture.
