Love Knights Ferry is Saturday, October 5 starting at 8am! Bring your rakes, shovels, and empty garbage cans to tidy up the town! This is a great way to get the family out to do a good deed and help keep our town clean! A lot of people share their opinion about the garbage left around and the community agrees so please bring your gloves and trash pickers on Saturday morning.

I love Knights Ferry School’s spirit! They’ve been having spirit weeks with themed dress days, rallies to get the kids pumped up, and I enjoy listening to their morning chant and pledge before school starts! Keep up the positive work, Bobcats!

Lily Sturtevant, a 7th grader at Knights Ferry School coordinated a “See you at the Pole” event and invited her peers to come to pray for our country, school, classmates, and families. Way to go, Lily! Thank you for taking the initiative to bring light to our little school on the hill.
