Community Easter Egg Hunt!

Come one, come all!  The North Salem United Methodist Church, North Salem Christian Church, and Emmanuel Baptist Church have all united as one to bring the community a huge Easter egg hunt!  Come enjoy family time together hunting eggs at the North Salem Town Park.  The egg hunt will be for all ages, including adults, and there will also be raffle drawings for all age groups!   There are two entrances to the park, one on SR 75 next to Dollar General, the other on SR 236 by the Eel River Village apartments.  Parking will be available at both entrances, but the park will be closed off for driving through for the safety of all.  Currently, the weather looks to be perfect for an enjoyable spring afternoon with family and friends, but if the forecast changes, an indoor location for this event will be updated here and posted on social media chatter pages.

Ladoga Avenue and Center Street will be getting a much needed facelift!  The contractor was able to squeeze this project in, so milling will begin on Friday, July 1st.  Paving is planned for Monday, July 4th, weather permitting.  Work will take place from State Road 75 all the way north to the North Salem Baptist Church on Ladoga Avenue.  All of Center Street will be re-paved.  Work will not be done on Saturday or Sunday, as far as we know.
