The We Care Gang puts on these events to build community where the entire county (including visitors) is invited to spend the day together enjoying good food, fun and live music. At the same time these events are used to raise money to help needy persons in Brown County with food and shelter related needs.

 

The 2011"Abe Martin's County Picnic", which will be the 7th annual picnic event, is to be held on Saturday, September 17th, centered at the Village Green. There will be food, fun and music again. The "NashCar" Outhouse Races are to be held again this year. We will be serving pork, hamburger, hotdogs, potato chips, baked beans and drinks.
