Tomorrow, Friday, the Senior Citizens will be having their potluck at noon, with the meeting to follow. It is requested that you bring non-perishable food items that will be taken back to the food pantry by the Resource Center's representative, who will be attending the meeting.

Sunday, March 28th the Class of 2013 will be serving a pancake breakfast from 8:30 to 1 p.m. at the Civic Center in Max.

This past Sunday's breakfast served by the Max Senior Citizens had a very good turnout with many coming from the surrounding areas. Tickets were sold for the raffle that will be taking place during Older American's Day at the Senior Center on May 8th. This is also the day that Kyle's Greenhouse comes with their plants. To obtain raffle tickets, talk to any Senior Citizen.

The community of Max is honored to receive a $5000.00 grant to be used by the Max Public Library. Only 5 towns in North Dakota were chosen to receive this grant. It all came about with a program called "More For Everyone", sponsored by Bayer Crop Science in the sale of Invigor Canola Seed in Max, through Chris Krebsbach. The company 'gave back' $1.00 per bag sold, to the communities. Growers in the area who purchased the seed from Chris, nominated the library. Nominations from other towns, too, were all studied by a panel of Bayer Crop Science employees and they in turn chose only five cities to receive their gift. This is all in memory of Bill Huesers who had purchased this seed from Chris before.
