Epsom & Utica News

by Faye Ashton

I have noticed Christmas lights shining brightly as we enter the darkest season of the year. It seems just a little extra light makes even a huge difference.

The Santa Claus Parade for each town is now inching closer and will soon travel down the main streets for our enjoyment. It takes lots of thought, imagination, and courage to do the long walk in sometimes very cold weather. Don't forget to thank the volunteers for making our towns special.

Congratulations to the Durham West Go for the Gold team, Carson Moore, Rylan Cox, Emily Phillips, Tyler McLeod and Coaches Hayley Ashton and Jennifer McLeod, who placed fourth at the Royal Winter Fair. You have made us proud.

Church at Epsom United Church is this Sunday at 10:30 a.m. Fellowship to follow.
