The Gans High School Leading Individuals Further Everyday (LIFE), a Learn and Serve student leader action group, has begun a multi-phase project entitled “Project Play,” Debbie Sprouse, advisor said.

“The project goal is to refurbish the Gans Community Park which is in disrepair,” Sprouse said.

Members will be cleaning up the park from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Friday.

“Everyone is invited to come and join the fun. Bringing gardening tools will be a plus,” Sprouse said.

Members will also host “Gans Play Fest” from noon to 4 p.m. Saturday at the park.

The planned activities will include carnival games, food, and a free Easter Egg Hunt for children nine years old and younger.

The hunt will begin at 1 p.m. There will also be prizes and $50 gift certificates, Sprouse said.

Helping with the Play Fest are Gans Little League and Gans Assembly of God Church.

After an experiment that lasted several months, the editors at Your TIMES decided this week to end the practice of allowing anonymous comments on our website because most of the comments involve personal attacks and unfounded accusations. These comments do not add information to a story, or add any true insight. While we believe in the free exchange of ideas, it had become evident that was not what was happening in the comment section of our website. Readers can also become fans of Your TIMES on Facebook and may comment on our postings there. Readers are also encouraged to write letters to the editor to the newspaper about matters of public interest. The newspaper circulation is several times that of the web site, so readership is much higher. Letters must include a name and phone number so that we may contact the writer to verify authenticity of the letter. Letters are limited to 500 words and one letter per writer per month is accepted.
