HBCS begins plans for Friendship Days, seeks volunteers

The Helping Building Communities Stronger (HBCS) club will meet later this month to plan the 2021 Friendship Days.
“There are never enough hands,” said HBCS president Howard Vis.
The planning meeting will be 7 p.m. Monday, March 29, at the Hills Legion Hall.
Vis made the announcement at the March 9 Hills City Council meeting.
He said current coronavirus pandemic guidelines will be easy to follow for the Saturday morning parade, but club members will need to review guidelines for the community meal at the city park along with the children’s activities including the soapbox derby.
“We’ll have some activities. We just don’t know what they will be,” he said.
The March 29 meeting will choose a 2021 parade marshal and a possible parade theme. Community letters about the event will be sent this month, Vis said.
The 2021 event is scheduled for the second weekend in June with activities slated for Friday, June 11, and Saturday, June 12.
Events were canceled in 2020 due the pandemic.
