Baseball, Bargains, Lunch and Laughter!

Never mind the sensational bargains and wide selection, the number one reason to visit Grantville's Hidden Treasures (20 LaGrange Street) is to hear LeAnn Stokes laugh. I tell you, that laugh will lift dreariest of spirits and soften the hardest of hearts. Lucky for all of us in Grantville, she laughs often!

This Saturday you have a whole bunch of other reasons to come down to the corner of Main Street/Colley Street and LaGrange/Post Streets in downtown Grantville. Sellers from Bethlehem Baptist Church will take part in the Grantville Monthly Market Community Yard Sale(8 am to 2 pm or later.)hosted by Hidden Treasures.

You can also check out the Premier Jewelry Show presented by local resident Amanda Foiles, enjoy Free 10-minute Tanning Sessions and sign up for super salon specials at New Image Salon. Be sure to check out the pre-opening of ReUse the Past Annex, offering vintage and antique household items and featuring custom furniture crafted from salvaged wood. While you're here, find out about locally based service providers and small businesses nearby.

Ten-year old Destiny Reeves will perform during Nick's Parking Lot Pizza Party at noon. Pick up a raffle ticket for prizes donated by Born Again Antiques, William & Mary's Antiques and Community Bank & Trust (all in nearby Hogansville) as well as the businesses co-sponsoring this month's Grantville Market.

Down the block at the beautiful new Grantville baseball park, Little League All-Stars will be playing America's game throughout the day!

(...and if you think you have to miss the fun because there's laundry and shopping to do, don't fret! Just drop by Dollar General and visit the Corner Coin Laundry - it's as close to being "beautiful" as a laundrymat can get..lots of shiny new machines ready to make your smelly laundry fresh and clean!)

"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat."
