Yazoo City residents have a reputation for getting creative with Christmas displays, and the Triangle Cultural Center wants to encourage that tradition to continue.
One city resident will be awarded $100 for the best residential decorations through the “Let Your Light Shine” contest.
“The idea is to show off your Christmas spirit in lights,” said Triangle Director K.K. Hill, creator of the contest that he plans to make an annual event.
To enter a residence in the contest call 746-2273. The judging will be held on Dec. 18. The winner will be announced in the following edition of The Yazoo Herald.
Dear Editor:
In the 6 April 2013 edition of The Yazoo Herald you published a letter from Cynthia Fuller, "Thanks to (Van) Foster for helping get bridge replaced."
After reading this lettter, I had the impression that the bridge was completed and traffic was moving along normally.
Wrong! Last Sunday I was on my way to homecoming at Providence Baptist Church. I turned north onto old 49 and saw the signs that the bridge was out. I assumed that they hadn't gotten around to removing the signs. I expected to cross Thompson Creek on the new bridge. When I approached the creek the road was barricaded and construction equipment was down in the creek.
Perhaps The Herald can keep us updated as to the progress being made on the new bridge.
