Extension Homemakers Director Judy Tulley, from left, and volunteer Susan Vaught assist patrons Debbie Riddle and Frankie Harwood Saturday at the organization's annual Holiday Expo at the Fairgrounds. Due to coronavirus (COVID-19) restrictions, the traditional kick-off to the holiday season saw fewer vendors this year to allow for social distancing; of 26 spaces available, 21 vendors participated in the event, which serves as the club's largest fundraiser of the year. The club uses funds from the Expo, partly, to send kids to summer camp each year. The club also donates books to elementary schools and partners with Head Start to support literacy in youth.

Wingate Postmaster Jennifred Jones poses next to her decorations Thursday to celebrate 50 years since the opening of the "new" post office in 1970. To honor the milestone, Jones and others at the post office handed out cupcakes and decorated the interior with flowers, pottery, Indian corn and letters of appreciation, much of which was donated by those who frequent the building. It's the people of Wingate and the small town atmosphere that have made the post office a central hub for the community, Jones said.
