A Fairdale Tornado victim, Tom Bell, who lost almost everything in the April 9th EF-4 tornado, received a special donation from a group of fifth graders.

Many people from out of town and state flooded the towns Fairdale and Rochelle to help in the aftermath of the April 9th tornado. One of those groups, Samaritan's Purse, will be on the grounds for the last day today.

With all the wonder support flowing into the community to help with the clean up and recovery from last week's tornado, the forest near Fairdale needs your help too.

I'm so excited to see what Rockford Sharefest will be doing this summer. The school they're targeting to beautify will be Roosevelt Community Education Center. In the years past I have been honored to play a part in helping this organization in their quest to not only beautify our area's schools but to bring the community together. Their are many lessons that I've learned from Rockford Sharefest.
