Members of Progressive Civic & Recreational Club (PCRC) enjoyed dinner, exchanged gifts, sang Christmas carols, and prayed together during their annual Christmas party, held December 8 at David’s Catfish House. The non-profit, established in 1960, is funded by membership dues and donations from local and out-of-state residents. That money is used to assist needy families, provide scholarships for high school students, and fund other community projects.
