Here in the Luna Valley, you can count on a few things to really signal the change of the seasons. While we are still waking to below freezing temperatures; the windy season is in full swing and drying us out quickly. Also Evelyn Hulsey’s garden is plowed waiting for her arrival home again and the first hummingbirds will be here like clockwork this weekend.
Luna Community Center
Our Community Center has been busy with a little of everything the past couple of weeks.
The Lunatic Stitchers held another “overnighter”. As always there was plenty of good food and friends to share in their work. The women got a great start on this year’s raffle quilt blocks. For 2010 the annual quilt will use the “Eureka” pattern. As soon as the tickets go on sale this beautiful quilt will be readied and will be displayed throughout the area. Contact any Lunatic Stitcher for more information.
There will be four community rummage sales this year. They are scheduled to be held on Memorial Day weekend, 4th of July Holiday weekend, Labor Day weekend and in a final year end event, the first weekend of November, just before the holidays. Be sure to reserve your table with Diana Moyers.
The Luna Park will be moved from the fire station to the community center soon. Please contact a member of the fire department, ambulance or community center if you can offer your help.
The first Rodeo committee meeting was held last Monday night at Susie Ley’s home. If you can help this year please contact someone on the committee; it takes volunteers to put on the array of annual events that are planned.
The Luna Valley 4-H held their annual elections this week and are preparing for the rabies clinic and bake sale April 23. Watch for more information on exact time and place on the bulletin boards in town or contact Joyce Laney.
Morning Walk
For a brisk morning walk in the sunshine, many women in Luna are meeting at the community center at 9 a.m. each Monday through Saturday. All are welcome.
Community Wishes
We send our wishes of quick healing and strength again to the Hulsey family after hearing news of LeAnn (Hulsey) Wilkerson’s recent horse accident.
Preparedness Corner
Some wonderful websites to help you in your preparedness goals are only a click away. Visit storefood.com and on the left hand side of the screen you will see a food calculator; here is where you can put in your family information and it will help you to see just what amounts of different items you should set goals to have in your storage.
Family history
Here is another reminder to share all that you have with your extended family. Always add details to your research and your “storytelling” of your ancestors for future generations to really know and relate to you and to them.

“Through humor, you can soften some of the worst blows that life delivers. And once you find laughter, no matter how painful your situation might be, you can survive it.”
