The scene was originally painted by Buddy’s father, Wayne Spradley and shows Old Hwy. 78 crossing a creek. Students were allowed to copy Wayne Spradley’s work or create a landscape of their own. In addition to the paintings, the students are creating oil and chalk pastel drawing to accompany the canvas images. All works of art will be on display during the drama clubs presentation of “Our Town”Oct. 1  and continue until Oct. 10.

With events centered in the downtown, the day will begin with a Puppy Parade, featuring dogs of all sizes and breeds competing for various prizes. Registration for the parade begins at 10 a.m. that day.
