It is with sadness that we learn of the passing of Nell Witty Summar who died at her home. Our prayers are for husband, Gordan, and family.
TCAP has come and gone for another year now all students (and teachers) can relax!

Hannah Whited is back at it - running crazy!! She and her Central Magnet team participated in the Kentucky Easter Relay completion last weekend and placed 3rd in the 4x800 relay. She also ran her best time in the 3200 m race finishing at 11:27. Run Hannah Run!!

Congratulations to Travis Baines who graduated Tuesday from Tennessee College of Applied Technology in Murfreesboro. He is an Industrial Maintenance Technician. Several family members were on hand to see him his certification followed by a delicious celebratory meal at La Siesta Mexican Restaurant.

JimBo's is getting quite the place to meet at breakfast. Fame is spreading far and wide! Thursday morning it was a tableful of Brysons and spouses - some all the way from Georgia. Barry "Jug" and Janice Bryson Gaither, Darien, GA, and Ed and Myrtle Bryson, Bobby and Betty Sue Bryson Hayes, and Brenda Bryson Mullinax of Woodbury gathered in to enjoy a good time catching up with several locals.

The 2015 Regional Children's (4th-6th) Bible Drills were held recently at Washington Avenue Baptist Church in Cookeville. Congratulations to Kiley Hughes and Caitlyn Crook who were State Superior winners, the highest honors in the Children's division. Congratulations to both of these young ladies for a job well done.

Saturday, June 6th we're expecting even more "catchings up" to happen as the Auburn School Reunion of 2015 take place. Be sure to contact anyone who has had any connection to Auburn School both past and present and invite them to this "every -5-year" event. There is no program planned, any speeches will be "impromptu" (off-the-cuff) and may or may not be interesting!! Eat with the local Lion's Club or not, that's up to you - we encourage you to come and enjoy a good time reminiscing.

Bobbie Whited celebrates a birthday the 6th of June and we wish her the best of birthdays. MaLeah Scott celebrates the same day. It's the next day that Lauren Turney celebrates hers. On the 8th Jody Tuck will treat wife, Sarah Tuck to a birthday celebration! Carlene Brown Judkins puts another year under her skinny belt on the 9th. Dixie Lynn Garrison turns 6 on the 10th while Samuel Robert Hockett turns 5. Terry Whited also celebrates that day. Lisa Tepenny and Brandon Turney share birthdays on the 11th and Murrell McAllister, Adrianna Reed (entering her teens!), Hannah Whited and Ralph Coe all finish up the week's worth of wishes on the 12th. Happy, Happy, Happy days to all of you.
No anniversaries to mention so have a great week.
