Belmont MS Girls Hoopsters predicted to fare well
In a preview of the middle school basketball season, the Gazette mentioned that the girls team from Belmont should do quite well.
Unfortunately, the new coach didn’t submit any information to the Gazette for the article. Based on various girl’s participation in other sports this school year, the basketball team should be just as athletic as the fall sports squads.
Good luck ladies, and boys too.

The Belmont, oops, Montcross, Chamber of Commerce bestowed its highest community award to Jack and Gearl Dean Page at its January 24 annual dinner.
We also congratulate the Pages for this award. As friends and neighbors at church and in the community, Jack and Gearl Dean have always been active and engaged in community projects.
Both the Gazette and Gaston/Lincoln section of the Observer wrote very nice stories about the Page’s involvement in a host of community activities.
