Community dinners are typically held on the last Friday of each month from 5:30 to 7 p.m. The meal is free, but a collection jar is available on the table where the coffee and desserts are served so that people can donate a freewill offering. See Community Dinners pg 6

Conestoga Christian School Sets Chicken Barbecue, Auction BY FRANCINE FULTON
onestoga Christian School (CCS) will hold its 49th annual chicken barbecue and auction on Friday and Saturday, Oct. 14 and 15. All proceeds will benefit the school, which offers classes for students in preschool through 12th grade. The event will begin with the barbecue dinner on Oct. 14, which will be takeout only. Dinners will be available to purchase at the door until sold out. Dinners may be picked up in the school’s front parking lot from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Also on Oct. 14, a gift certificate store will be open outside the school, and there will be homemade apple dumplings available for purchase. A live auction will be held on Oct. 15 from 9 a.m. until the last item is
Grilling, Camping, the Pampered Pup, Helping Hands and Something for the Graduate. Bidding on class baskets will start at 9:30 a.m. CCS students in the art and ceramics independent study classes led by teacher Eirené Groff have also created items that will be up for bids, including paintings and a quilt. Groff will place her own oil painting in the auction as well. “Right after the class baskets are auctioned, we will give the bidders an opportunity to raise their paddles to make a donation toward our special project,” said Parris. “In the past it’s been a new copier, a bus and picnic tables. This year, our special project is our capital campaign. With the amount of growth in our enrollment, we would like to build additional classrooms.”
Historic Poole Forge will present Cruise to the Forge, the site’s annual car, truck and bike show, on Sunday, Oct. 16, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. In addition to the display of vehicles of all makes and models, the event will include food, music and a silent auction. The site’s mansion will also be open for tours.
