may be a bit weird looking but we're all used to it by now!
Thanks for everything--your upbeat sense of humor,
energizer vitality, willingness to be everywhere at all
times and your kind consideration of the common folk.
For he's a jolly good hairy guy!
First and most important is Trunk or Treat, would you agree? Downtown Crouch loves a party and with the kids and adults looking their ghoulish best, it couldn't be funner! The Chamber will be sponsoring this event on Saturday, October 30, in conjunction with the Garden Valley School Carnival.
This year, the November 27 downtown Crouch holiday bazaar will be handled by the vendors, so if you need a space, jump on it because they may be filled. Contact Anita Sherwood, at 208-462-2500. Chamber will still be sponsoring the Spring Fling.
If you miss out on a space in Crouch, call Georgianna Goetsch, at 462-3709. She's heading up the Holiday Bazaar and Fundraiser sponsored by GV & Lowman Crafters at the GV School, on December 4. Local artisans and crafters are wanted, along with local fundraising groups.
The Merc's projected time for the new building roof is end of October, which is ahead of schedule. Co-owner Greg Simione says the building looks huge, but a lot of it is storage. If you are checking out the process, the foundation to the right is the future Les Bois Credit Union and the space between will be available to lease for a business. So far, no pharmacist has leased the indoor pharmacy space, so if you know anyone...208-462-3817.

President of the Chamber is a heavy load for any business person, and Greg Simione carried it. Chamber VP, Diane Caughlin, was ready to step down but says she is willing to divvy up the job as dual-administrator, if John Cottingham will co-operate.
Greg Simione will be stepping down for the important business of getting the new Merc ready for the community. He encourages members to throw some names into the hat. "It's important to let people be involved. You don't have to mirror the last four years. Perhaps meet one time a month, in the evening or daytime, or remain more flexible. I urge people to step forward and volunteer."
