Rogersville Trunk or Treat Celebration

Anyone who wanted candy on Halloween didn’t need to walk around town going door-to-door. All they needed to do is come downtown, where local business, civic leaders, and others set up booths and gave out free candy to anyone who wanted. The line went all the way from the vicinity of Hale Springs Inn at one end of downtown to beyond the offices of The Rogersville Review at the other end. This was the 17th year in which Rogersville has featured a downtown Trunk or Treat event. A costume contest was part of the festivities.

Greene County Thanksgiving Day Outreach seeks volunteers to help feed thousands in need

Volunteers are being sought to help with this year’s Greene County Thanksgiving Outreach, an event which is expected to feed more than 2,500 individuals this year. The annual event held each Thanksgiving Day provides meals throughout Greene County to those who may not otherwise enjoy a Thanksgiving meal. “There is a limit of one meal per household member and requests for meals must be submitted by Nov. 15,” a news release from event organizers says. Those desiring to have meals delivered to their homes may register online via the “Meal Request” link at www.thanksgivingoutreach.org or call 423-467-5144.

Republican State Representative David Hawk Disputes Democratic Party Post-Election Numbers

Republican and State Representative David Hawk is debating statistics released by the local Democratic Party the day after the mid-term elections on Tuesday. In a note sent to Radio Greeneville News on Thursday evening Hawk said, “It has come to my attention that in her message related to the November 3rd elections” (which was reported by Radio Greeneville News on Thursday), “Greene County Democratic Party Leader Cheryl Summers suggests Greene County Democrats “celebrate” because “they made progress here in rural Red Tennessee”. She is remarkably wrong in her assessment.
