be no charge to participate, but
Neelley asks that those planning
to participate in this manner con-
tact her with any questions.
“We want our residents to be
able to join in on the fun,” Neelley
explained. “That’s why we are in-
viting everyone to come downtown
and give out candy and treats to
our area youths in a safe and fun
environment.”
“Over the years, as this event
has continued to grow, many resi-
dents have noted that trick-or-
treating in their neighborhood has
all but ceased,” Neelley continued.
“Some of those residents say they
miss the contact with the young-
sters and wished they could par-
ticipate in some way. We think this
is a way that they can do just that.”
The annual Brookshire’s Hal-
loween Costume Contest will also
be held in conjunction with the
other activities of the evening.
First- through third-place prizes
will be awarded in four age groups:
two and under, three to four, five
to seven, and eight to 10 years of
age. Judging is planned at 6 p.m.
Monday, Oct. 31.
For more information on the
event, or to sign up to participate,
contact Neelley at City Hall at

lant for the changes” to the EDC
and also addressed the huge eco-
nomic impact that hosting tourna-
ments could offer to Clifton.
Quoting average figures, the orga-
nization predicts more than
$50,000 could come into the city as
a result of hosting a state baseball
tournament.
Following his presentation,
board members addressed com-
ments and questions to Wise. Di-
rector David Anderson said, “With
the completion of the new hotel,
we’re ripe for hosting a state tour-
nament. I think the project would
be good for the community.”
All directors agreed that the ad-
dition and expansion of Clifton’s
baseball complex would signifi-
cantly benefit the community and
approved the request to be slated
for a public hearing. President Ri-
chard Spitzer declined to vote, ab-
staining on the basis of a conflict
of interest.

and enjoy the refreshments that
will be served all day.
Last year, the Auxiliary cleared
approximately $2,500 from the
sale of designer gold and sterling
silver jewelry, name brand
watches, and jewelry raffles. The
Auxiliary receives 25 per cent
(net) on sales.
A wide variety of affordable and
attractively displayed jewelry
highlights the sale, which is
staffed by personnel with exten-
sive merchandising and jewelry
background. Gold ‘N Visions pro-
vides a toll-free number for ex-
changes, defective merchandise,
or for other reasons.
The proceeds from the
Auxiliary’s money-making
projects are used to help purchase
needed equipment for the hospi-
tal. In the past, new intensive care
unit beds, new mattresses for the
beds in the hospital, and numer-
ous other items have been pur-
chased.
Five scholarships in the amount
of $500 were also given to recipi-
ents to use toward their education
in nursing service and clinic labo-
ratory this past year as well as
previous years
“While buying the fine jewelry
discount prices, everyone will
be helping the Auxiliary to raise
funds for local healthcare projects
at the same time,” said Auxiliary
member Denise Wise. “All of the
proceeds will enhance the deliv-
ery of quality healthcare services
to the community through
Goodall-Witcher Healthcare
Foundation. And with the new re-
modeling project the Goodall-
Witcher Healthcare is
undertaking, this is another great
way to help support your hospi-
tal.”
“Come and get your Christmas
shopping done early,” Wise added.

of Care." The project will include
the construction of a new Nursing
Center, a Dementia/Alzheimer’s
Center, an assisted living facility,
a new chapel, and administration
building. The present buildings,
most over 35 years old, will be re-
placed by the new buildings, which
will incorporate the latest in
healthcare technology and yet
provide a pleasant, safe, and func-
tional home setting.
While the facilities will allow for
enhanced services and care, they
will also provide for reduced op-
erating costs because of efficiency
in usage of space. Farther, Goerdel
describes the project as the future
of Sunset Home with shorter nurs-
ing home stays and additional ser-
vices in other housing choices
such as assisted living and inde-
pendent living quarters.
“We hope the people of Bosque
and surrounding counties will join
us in this ministry to support this
ambitious new approach to nurs-
ing and long-term care of the eld-
erly in our communities,” said
Chairman Bell. “We will all benefit
in the long run.”

enced team from Cranfills Gap.
Working in partnership with pro
ducer Matt Wallace, the team de-
signed their new show to be unique
and “more personable,” said
Wallace. He said, “When I met the
guys and heard their idea, I realized
the potential.”
In the effort to make the program
for personable, promoters focus at-
tention on the fact that Scott Cobb’s
two daughters are married to the
two younger ropers, Sean and John.
All three are independent business-
men, as well as active team ropers.
“Their distinctly different person-
alities also mesh well as a team. Be-
tween the three of them and their
personalities as a whole, it’s almost
a sure thing that audiences will con-
nect.”
Steer wrestling, goat tying, barrel
racing, cutting, reining, ranch ro-
deo, and team roping are the pri-
mary focus of the new show, but
creators believe what will keep
viewers interested are the people,
the horses, and their stories. “Meet-
ing some of the top performers
across the performance horse in-
dustry will provide both educational
and entertaining insight into the
skills and life-styles that perfor-
mance horse people want to see.
And while the focus might be on the
performance horse industry, any-
one who loves and works with
horses will enjoy this program.”
“Right now we’re working on get-
ting a complete show in place,” said
Wallace. “It is a real challenge.” Still
filming and editing, the team faces
the ongoing work of production.
“We’re roping every weekend any-
way,” said Stef Cobb. “We thought
‘why not film it.’”
Besides their own expertise, the
team felt that it would add signifi-
cantly to the show’s variety and
freshness to add other clinicians
and presenters. Gathering some of
the top performers across the per-
formance horse industry “will pro-
vide both educational and
entertaining insight into the skills
and life-styles that performance
horse people want to see.”
Those involved believe that ulti-
mately, the authentic candor and
love for the performance horse in-
dustry comes through loud and
clear as audiences enjoy getting to
know these three cowboys from
central Texas.
“If you love reining, cutting, ranch
rodeo, team roping, barrel racing,
and steer wrestling; or if you’re just
generally ‘punchy’, All Around Per-
formance Horse Weekly is a show
you won’t want to miss.”
Creators encourage audiences to
watch the premiere on Nov. 3. For
