The Little Free Library
Headed by Librarian Stephanie Haw, this is a free book-sharing box where anyone can take a book or share a book for all reading levels with emphasis on new readers from childhood through adolescence.
The Library was dedicated Jan 18, 2024 and is located at Morrison United Methodist Church.
Linking Women to their Historic Past
DAR endeavors to link women to their historic past in order to educate contemporary women and young women so that the story of this country’s freedom will be carried forth to the future.
To accomplish this goal, the NSDAR has established state and local chapters whose purpose it is to bring together women who can trace their ancestry back to the days of Massa Harbison to honor our patriots and promote historic preservation and education.
