Are you taking in all the activity in Max! Watch the Max Cafe as it is moved into its new location on the east end of Main Street. Watch the big house being built on the west end of Main Street. And it shouldn't be too long before the elevator activity begins.

The Max Cafe is moving, yes, so it will be closed for this move and hopefully opening in their new location on July 25th. The All-School Reunion is over but there are still shirts and hoodies available from the all-school-reunion and if you are interested in purchasing one of these, contact Amanda Huettl at the school at 679-2685.

There will be a bridal shower for JoAnn Brag at St. Matthew's Lutheran Church on Sunday, July 17th at 3 p.m. Bring your favorite recipe. Everyone is welcome. JoAnn is the bride-to-be of Joe Huettl. They will be married in Max on August 13rh.

Linda Garrison of 11348 Boston Way; Fishers, IN 46038 writes they are thinking of buying a house in Max from one of their relatives. She would like to get to know more about the town. It looks like a great place to live and raise a family. If there are any job listings for the town available, that would be very helpful too. Her e-mail address is climberjane@yahoo.com

Lost, a large trampoline. It blew away one windy night. If you have seen it, please phone Vernon or Barbara Wenger at 838-7399. It had been set up at their farmstead west of Max.
