DAR America 250 program Tuesday not Monday

(Editor's Note: In this week's edition — and earlier online — it was reported this event would be conducted on Monday, Aug. 31. It is, in fact, being conducted on Tuesday, Sept. 1, and the public is welcome and encouraged to attend. We apologize for any inconvenience this might have caused and are happy to set the record straight at this time.)

The Chickasawhay Daughters of the American Revolution will host an 
America 250 event Tuesday morning.

Activities will begin at 10:30 a.m. at Rhinehart Square. Everyone is 
welcome and encouraged to attend.

Thomas Jefferson will be reading the Declaration of Independence and 
numerous local and state officials are expected to be in attendance. 
State DAR officials are also expected to be a part of the program.
