Make A Difference Day Set in Wilkes

Approximately 263 people gathered last year to make a difference in Wilkes.  This week, County Commissioners approved a Proclamation for this year's Make a Difference Day.  On October 25, it will mark the 17th annual event of volunteers gathering to work on various service projects around the county from raking leaves to signing cards for our men and women in the military to building wheelchair ramps and other needed jobs.  At Tuesday's County Commissioners' Meeting, the Commissioners discussed how over the past 17 years of having Make a Difference Day that thousands of dollars in service projects had been completed by volunteers.  Again, Make a Difference Day is October 25th.
