Good evening all of our Freshwater friends and family. We hope you are having a wonderful week. I apologize in advance for the lengthy message. It has been awhile and we have a lot of great news to share.
Many of our community friends and family have reached out in regards to using our Freshwater home for some very important Guffey gatherings, which we have graciously accepted.
The first event and one that we are so thankful to be holding is Wednesday June 24th at 5:30. Zachary James Garretson welcome home/fundraiser gathering. As many of you know Zack and his family have been through a very scary and emotional time. We are so incredibly thankful Zack is home and doing so well. We would like to help Zack and his family raise some funds for the unexpected medical expenses. Rebecca Killam and some of the other long time locals and talented musicians will be playing on the Freshwater patio starting at 5:30. If any of you have an instrument or a beautiful voice you would like to share, please do. We are asking everyone one to bring a dish to share and whatever you will be drinking. Please mark your calendars and come say Hi to Zack. Give him a much needed hug and come enjoy community and helping out this very wonderful family. πβ€οΈπ ππΆπΈπ₯
