A Bittersweet Holiday
This Monday, June 19th, we have a holiday in honor of Juneteenth. Juneteenth was made a National Holiday not long ago to honor the last African Americans being freed from slavery on June 19, 1865. This occurred when Federal troops liberated slaves in Texas, some 2 years after President Lincoln’s Emancipation Proclamation and several months after the Civil War ended.

Thankful for our Somerset County IL Youth!
A note from Director Laura Daumit I hope this Tuesday afternoon finds you all well. Matt (Kurowsky) and I had the pleasure of joining in on the Somerset IL Thanksgiving meal.
