The Town of Sims will be hosting a Community Park Event and Grand Re-Opening of the Town Hall on Saturday, October 15, 2022 from 10am - 2pm. Entry to the events will be free, but we are asking visitors to bring canned donations to benefit the Family Food Basket, our local food pantry which serves our community and the surrounding area. A list of acceptable goods can be found here. View the event poster here.
We will have multiple vendors at the Park giving out information and selling merchandise, inflatables for kids, a visit from SVFD’s Sparky the Firehouse Dog, icees, face painting, the Wilson County Sheriff Department’s Child ID Unit, an antique car show (at the Community Center), and so much more! Music will be provided by Ms. Louie “The Diva” Bowen, our Emcee for the day! Crystal’s Grill will be open serving fresh food during the event! We will also be hosting a meet-and-greet event at the renovated Town Hall for residents to come meet and speak with your Mayor and Town Commissioners.
