Robeline News: Week of September 4

The Robeline Heritage Society will hold a meeting in the heritage building this Thursday, Sept. 5 at 6 p.m. Anyone interested in helping or participating in the festival are invited to join us. We’re about a month out from the festival and are excited. We’re still accepting vendors,parade entries and alumni dinner reservations and believe the more the merrier.

Apostolic Truth Tabernacle will hold a youth rally on Friday, Sept. 6 at 7:30 p.m. All are welcome to join us for a night of preaching, food and fellowship. Preaching will be Bro. Mark McFerren, who has local roots around Robeline.

The village of Robeline called a special meeting last week after the passing of Alderman Mike Solice. The meetings agenda was to appoint Bubba Ivy as a temporary alderman until an election could be held. The meeting was unable to proceed because a quorum could not be established. Therefore the temporary alderman will be appointed by the governor by Sept. 16.
