The Village of Forsyth will be closed on Monday, 11-11-24. This also includes Public Works, so no leaf/limb pick up.
We are crossing our fingers that the weather will warm up a bit- and we will see you tonight!
Make sure to stop by the playground from 4-6:00!
Fire hydrant flushing next week!
⚠️⚠️⚠️
While the playground looks fun….the yellow tape & fence means it’s still closed! It is not safe to play yet!
Unfortunately Public Works had to kick 9 people off today!
We will be up and running soon, and we promise it will be worth it!
⚠️⚠️⚠️
Trick or Treat
Oct 31 until 8:00
Please turn on your light if you want to participate.
This weekend (on his birthday weekend!) our very own Director of Public Works was inducted into the USA/ASA softball Hall of Fame! This guy hates recognition, but I am certain the Villlage is a much better place because of him- and I am so happy that others recognize him too ❤️Way to go, Darin and thanks to Teri Young Hammel for honoring him!
It’s been a fun day! Lots of announcements! We can’t wait to welcome Carpet Weaver's Flooring & Furniture Gallery!
We have heard the secret is out! SOOOO...coming soon:
Dollar General Plus! Plus stores are larger than traditional Dollar General stores with more coolers/freezers to keep more perishable items in stock and more fresh produce! There is not a Dollar General Plus located next to us, and we have been told it will be somewhere in between the store sizes of those in Mt. Zion/Maroa/Warrensburg vs DG Markets.
***Dollar Generals states Our custom pre-engineered metal buildings offer Dollar General Stores the upmost efficiency designed as single slope structures in three basic sizes: 7,500 sf, 9,100 sf, and 10,640 sf . This one is the 10,640!
We have one week until the WSOY food drive. Drop off your donation to Village Hall from 7:00-4:00 and be entered to win a Green Flag sweatshirt!
Mark your calendar: We are excited to bring Rudolph's Village Market back to Forsyth on December 6 & 7 for this fun-filled family event! Our traditional Tree Lighting will kick off the market this year on December 6. The market will run from 4 PM to 7 PM both days.
If you or your group is interested in having a part of the event, please call Jill at 217-877-9445.
Beginning in 2025, there will be only all-day rentals for the Community Room and Large/Small Pavilion.
Community Room: 9:00-9:00 rental times $100 a day plus $75 refundable deposit
Large/Small Pavilion Rental: 7:00-10:00 rental times (still free)
This Friday at Forsyth Market, we will have the WSOY Community Food Drive bus present as we begin collecting food for the event. You can also drop donation by Village Hall from 7:00-4:00 Monday-Friday. Our staff will then deliver it for you on October 4th. You will still be able to write down your favorite school, so they get credit!
Everyone who donates to our collection will also be entered into a drawing to win a Forsyth Green Flag Good Neighbor Shirt.
