Ed Leister News Today

Deep in December, when it’s nice to remember, I began preparing a presentation for January 2021, on the history of Carroll Lutheran Village, some of it based on a 15-year history of the Village that I had written for a 1995 celebration of that event. Although the year 2020 was the 40th anniversary of the Village, not much could be done to celebrate that momentous occasion given the COVID-19 pandemic. But I thought, why not celebrate in my column even if 2020 is over!

Caroline Babylon replaced Ed Leister as executive director of Carroll County Food Sunday on Jan. 4.

For every pound people lose by the end of the contest, Restore Therapy Spa is planning to donate one pound of food to Carroll County Food Sunday.
