Also in other local news they have started putting up the walls for the new Cinergy Cinema in Corsicana Crossing. Hopefully by this summer the new complex will be open."

It is a fun day, people get to see their school and their friends they havent' seen in a year or two. They have lots of wonderful food. They also give money to help the local cemetery.

The Donald Wayne Barnett Memorial Scholarship benefits a resident or native of select Texas cities and counties or a student with financial need.

He began dating Patricia Anderson in 1956. The Barnetts marked their 52nd wedding anniversary in 2009. They are life members of the SFA Alumni Association. Don worked as a roughneck before taking more regular work in Nacogdoches to support his growing family. He earned a B.A and M.A. from SFA while working full time. He managed cafeterias at SFA until retiring in 1997. Don enjoyed spending time with his children and grandchildren, visiting old friends in Kerens and Corsicana, and finding lost treasures."

randyghughes21 writes "Where Home Depot now sits just off Main Street, could sometime in the future be home to a Seven Million Business that could possibly employ up to 51 workers. The road that runs by Home Depot and the other retail businesses could be extended to house other retail spots in the future. That is a fast grownig area off Highway 287 andIinterstate 45. I would like to see a Best Buy in that area. Waxahachie and Waco both have these fine stores in their area."

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Volunteers Needed to Help Nursing Home Residents
July 13, 2009 - The North Central Texas Council of Governments’ (NCTCOG) Area Agency on Aging Ombudsman Program has immediate need for warm-hearted volunteers to help elderly and disabled residents of nursing and assisted living facilities in Kerens and Corsicana. Ombudsmen advocate for residents’ rights including, but not limited to, dependable and consistent care and an environment that promotes the residents’ dignity, self-determination, and communication.
Volunteer Ombudsmen also receive and investigate complaints made by, or on behalf of, residents or their families. Since many residents do not receive regular visitors or have close relatives, it may be difficult for them to enlist advocates. Volunteer Ombudsmen serve as advocates for all residents, connecting them to their broader communities, affirming their rights, and assisting them in resolving concerns."
