Monday was a day of celebration (mostly for parents) and new goals being set as many of our Luna youth returned to Reserve Schools for the 2010-2011 school year. Kayli Laney is Luna’s only senior this year and there were no new kindergarten students. There is an Internet page to keep track of the school calendar and events at www.reserve.k12.nm.us
Our Luna Valley 4-H and Cloverbud members are busy preparing for the upcoming Catron County Fair August 26-28. If you are interested in donating to the buyer’s club please contact Joyce Laney before the fair.
A funeral service was held last Saturday at the Luna L.D.S. Church for Amy Hatch. Amy was the Granddaughter of Vernon Laney, Daughter of Linda Laney and niece of Joe Vernon Laney. Our love and prayers go out to her family and extended family.
Luna Volunteer Fire Department will hold officer elections for the department members to vote on a new Fire Chief at the end of the month. We would like to thank Charles Moyers for the time he has put in serving our community as Fire Chief.
A multi-state concealed weapons class will be held September 3 and 4 at the Community Center. For Registration and added Information please contact Joyce Laney by Sept. 1
Navopache Electric Coop has made a decision to remove all of our linemen from Catron County. Besides the inconvenience of losing the customer/business office in Reserve, this may affect all of us in a potentially dangerous and negative way. For more information you can contact Navopache Electric Coop or Jennifer Swenson of Reserve.
There will only be 4 more canning sessions held this year at the Luna Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. They are scheduled for Thur. Sept. 2; Fri. Oct. 1 and 29 and Friday Dec. 3 2011 canning dates are to be announced. Raw honey orders are being taken now through Aug. 22. Please contact Joyce Laney for orders and more information.
If names and dates on a page aren’t enough for your efforts, prove your documented lineage and join a society to show your heritage and possibly to help your children, grandchildren and extended family members; by becoming a living part of the many events, special programs and even college scholarships that they offer.
Some societies that you can join are as prominent as The Mayflower Society, Daughters of the Revolution, the New Mexico Genealogical Society and The Daughters of The Utah Pioneers; while there are others for the Sons of Confederate Veterans and the General Society of the War of 1812.
A good way to find what you’re looking for is to do an Internet search for the event adding the word “descendants”. You will find a whole new world opened to you with as much information and benefits as there are reasons to join.
