Friends, our Mayor's Motorcade is coming up on Saturday, November 28 at 3 PM, and we'd love your help spreading a little Christmas cheer to our neighbors at Lillian Carter Nursing Home and Sumter Retirement.
If you'd like to donate, the residents have asked for: body wash, shampoo and conditioner, rags, towels, socks, brushes, and snacks.
You can drop off items at City Hall or with any of our downtown merchants — you'll see flyers in their windows downtown with the list.
We'll deliver everything with the motorcade as we visit both homes that afternoon, finishing up before the Christmas Parade at 6 PM. Thank you, Plains, for taking care of our own.

Mark your calendar and bring the family. More details coming soon!

Thank you, Plains! 🎃
What a turnout for Trunk-or-Treat on Main Street Saturday night. Thank you to the Friends of Jimmy Carter for putting it on, to our sponsors, and to everyone who decorated a trunk, brought the kids, and came out to enjoy a safe, fun evening with your neighbors.
This town shows up for each other, and it showed Saturday night. Thank you all for making it such a great night in downtown Plains!

Good news, Plains — our Hometown Heroes banners will start going up next week, just in time for Veterans Day. These banners honor the men and women from our community who served our country, and we're proud to see them lining our streets again.
If you'd like to purchase a banner to honor a hero in your family, stop by City Hall and we'll get you taken care of.
Thank you to all who served, and to everyone who helps us honor them.
