FLOOR REFINISHING

Last year we had the Parish Hall floor refinished, but the material that was used did not stand up well, and will be re-done June 21st & 22nd. As there is a "curing" time required, there will be no one allowed into that room until June 30th. Also, due to the work crew being on site June 22nd, the Thrift Store will be closed June 22nd.
