Hello out there it's Judy Costello.
I will be writing the Vader News for a while. News about the community comes from the community so give me a call 295-3036.
Saturday August 1 is our third annual City Wide Yard Sale. Park your car walk around and check out the bargains. Vader Park Board will be holding their Hot Dog Fundraiser with none other than "Steve" at the grill. Have lunch and support our parks . Have you been to McMurphy Park this summer? Take time to go down to "little falls" get your feet wet and cool off. Both our parks are available for rent. Perhaps your planning a family reunion, wedding, class reunion, or other event our large park has bathrooms , fire pits and tables. Werden Park has bathrooms, covered pavilion, power and playground equipment to entertain the children. Call Vader City Hall for rental details at 295-3222.
The 4th of July event was a big hit. I think the word is out that we have the best fireworks for miles. While fireworks are over we must still be alert on any open burning-pits-barrels/grills winds in the evening and dry grass everywhere makes for hazardous conditions.
Word from City Hall is a clean-up day is scheduled for September...Details as they develop will be reported. I apologize to all, this year between high temps and warm winds the flowers downtown did not survive. I have been a part of beautification for 7 years and just could not manage to keep them alive. Next year will be better. Elections are coming soon so remember to do your part and Vote. All positions are volunteer, so I am proud of the seven people who stepped up to run for these positions.
