Salvation Army Christmas Bell Ringers: Seven singers from the Chancel Choir braved the frigid temps this past Saturday to sing carols for two hours outside the HarMar Cub store. It may have been cold, but the singers warmed everyone up with familiar carol part singing, and big smiles. Their efforts were to reach out in the community and help raise funds for this time honored effort!
