On Sunday the last game will be called by 9:30 PM. Come and play BINGO at the Eagles Shelter during the Fair in beautiful Welles Memorial Park! | These little girls put in a lot
of work & dedication getting ready to stand in front of a crowd of strangers.
They learn to walk, wave, dance, & answer questions. During the process they
learn to respect, work as a team & have fun. Open to Wilkin & Richland County Residents, girls ages 5-7 years old. Limit of first 10 contestants. Contest will be held on Saturday, August 18 at 7 PM at the Three River's Performing Stage. If you are interested in entering a child, contact Roxie Meyer at (701) 545-7540. |
