Rehearsals are currently underway for a Christmas Cantata scheduled for 6:30 p.m., Friday, Dec. 10 at the Triangle Cultural Center.
The program, sponsored by the Oakes African American Cultural Center, will feature performers from area churches under the direction of Edwina Gordon Fox.
Participants have been rehearsing at St. Stephen United Methodist Church Thursday evenings in preparation for the event.
This is the third year that a musical celebration of the Christmas season, sponsored by the Oakes Advisory Board of Directors, has been held at the Triangle. Last year’s audience was treated to beautiful medley of Christmas carols provided by choir members from local churches. -------for the rest of the story see The Yazoo Herald printed edition or subscribe to the Digital Edition.----------
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.
