To the editor:

Hickory Ridge seniors would like to thank everyone who helped contribute to the chili supper and mystery auction. We would like to recognize for contributions the CVS in Nashville, For Bare Feet sock factory, Tim Becraft, Brown County Health & Living Community and all who contributed to the auction and chili supper.

We would also like to thank Hank Marshall for auctioneering and the puppet man, Jeff Caplinger, for entertaining us.

And thanks to all who came out to support the chili supper and mystery auction.

Linda Outcalt, Hickory Ridge
