Sunday, we switch from Eastern Daylight Savings Time back to Eastern Standard Time at 2 a.m. Set all clocks back one hour before going to bed Saturday night. It is also a good time to check fire alarms, smoke detectors, heat detectors, and carbon monoxide detectors to ensure they are in good working conditions. With an extra hour of sleep Saturday night, you will have extra time for rest between these community events for your enjoyment:
The V-Point Ruritan Club will sponsor a country ham breakfast from 7-10 a.m. Saturday, Nov. 5 at the V-Point Building on Old Mocksville Road at Society Road about .3 mile from NC 901. Proceeds benefit community projects. The Ruritans look forward to seeing you there.
Salem United Methodist Church will host a “Fall Festival” beginning at 5 p.m. Saturday. Church members invite everyone for a meal of chicken stew, hotdogs and dessert followed by games and a hayride. Those who would like to bring a dessert may do so. Come and enjoy a night of good food, family fun, and fellowship.
