On Saturday, Sept. 17, I invite you to the 28th annual Celebrate Munford. This year’s celebration is the culmination of a year long project by many volunteers and I encourage you to join us for the festivities. I would like to personally thank Patriot Bank, Patriot Bank Mortgage and Patriot-Stitt Insurance for their support as our title sponsor. Also, many thanks to Baptist Memorial Hospital – Tipton for their sponsorship of the Celebrate Munford 5K Run held in August. Without the support of these fine sponsors and the support of many other businesses and individuals, this day could not happen.

The Celebrate Committee has worked hard to lay out our booth spaces, car show, and stages to better accommodate the large crowds we expect this year. I believe you will like it better.

We are pleased to present a fine slate of musical entertainment for you this year on four separate stages. We have assembled a variety of genre to appeal to all ages. The Mighty Electric St. Jude Band is our featured entertainer; they will perform at 4 p.m. and we will present a check for $1,500 to St. Jude Children’s Hospital at the end of their performance.

Throughout the past year, Celebrate Munford has been involved in the community, sponsoring Celebrate Independence on July 4, the Celebrate 5K Run and “Fill the Sleigh” Christmas Parade. Celebrate Munford grants have been given to many charitable organizations and scholarships have been given to deserving Munford High School students.

Again, I invite you to come to Munford on Saturday Sept. 17 for a great day of family fun and entertainment. Munford is nationally acclaimed as a safe place to live and raise a family. Exceptional schools, safe neighborhoods, recreational opportunities and a high quality of life attract many to our town. That’s why we say Munford is “My Kind of Town.”

Best regards, Dwayne Cole, Mayor

Gold level sponsors bring car, art shows to event C

elebrate Munford, Inc. is proud to announce the gold sponsors for this year’s event: Munford Tire & Brake – Car Show, and Martin & White Mechanical Contractors – Art & Photography Contest and Exhibit.

Margarette Patrick, Chair of Celebrate Munford 2011 said, “It’s an exciting time for the Celebrate Munford committee as we welcome back Munford Tire & Brake as our car show sponsor, and welcome new sponsor, Martin & White Mechanical Contractors. We appreciate the commitment from both of them and look forward to making lasting relationships that will prosper the event and the community.�

CAR SHOW Jason Sechrist, owner of Munford Tire & Brake located at 516 Munford Avenue, is returning for a third year as the car show sponsor. Through his support and the coordination of

American Legion Post 67, the Post is able to send area youth to Boys and Girls State, send packages to our troops in war zones, and continue the cookie visits to the veterans and their families at the VA hospital. Said car show coordinator Al Lightfoot, “Without this support, we would not be able to continue supporting our veterans at home and abroad. We greatly thank Munford Tire & Brake and Celebrate Munford Inc. for their generosity and the opportunity to host the car show to raise the needed funds.�

The car show will again be held in City Park at the corner of College and Douglas streets, and will feature antique cars, trucks, bikes and military vehicles. On-site registration starts at 8 a.m. and ends at 11 a.m. and costs $25 per vehicle. The first 100 registrants will receive an event t-shirt, dash plaque and goodie bag. Judging begins at 11 a.m. and the awards ceremony is at 3 p.m.

LEADER PRINTING ENVELOPES. BUSINESS CARDS. MAGAZINES. DIRECT MAIL. MULTI-PART TICKETS.

For more than 120 years, The Leader has maintained a print shop for commercial customers and that tradition is still alive and well. A two-color Harris press continues to crank out products, from postcards to magazines while a Chief duplicator handles business cards, letterhead and envelopes and more. While technology changes from time to time and a new piece of equipment is moved in, the commercial print operation has been running strong since well before The Leader moved into its current location more than 40 years ago.

ANGEL DOWN Angel Down is one of the hottest new Christian Hard Rock Bands to hit the Memphis area.

With their God Given talents they are ready to praise our Lord in the only way they know how, with loud, aggressive ROCK! You can expect heavy guitar riffs, screaming vocals, and a thunderous rhythm section in a live show that is second to none. The right musicians playing for the right reasons.

New fire station under construction Funded with a $1.8 million Recovery Act grant, a new fire station is under construction in downtown Munford.

The much-needed facility will bring more space for the Munford Fire Department’s headquarters, allowing for the housing of each of the department’s vehicles.

Fire chief Alan Barkelew said a museum will also be included in the new facility in addition to new day rooms, offices, sleeping quarters, a kitchen and more.

The department employs eight full-time and 40 volunteer firefighters at three stations in Munford and Atoka.

Firefighters protect a 35-square mile area in the department’s primary response area and participates in automatic mutual aid to other departments extending coverage to more than 60 miles. A population of more than 29,000 people receive fire services through the Munford-Atoka Fire Department.

The project is expected to be completed by early 2012, according to city officials.
