Happy Thanksgiving Everyone! I hope this coming week finds you celebrating all the blessings that we have been given during this past year and cherishing your family. Enjoy your get-togethers and if you are traveling, be safe!
The City of Erick’s Annual Toy Drive, sponsored by Erick Emergency Services, is in full swing right now.
