Members of the Hope Civitan Club enjoy a short break in their watermelon slicing duties at the Watermelon Festival. The club has taken on the Thursday afternoon shift at the watermelon “stand” for several years and seem to be enjoying their part in a favorite summertime activity — outdoor watermelon eating. Seated, from left, are members Twyla Pruden, Eva Morehead and Kim Smith. Standing are Terra Newsom and Amber Mackey, along with Amber’s daughter Kristina King, who is enjoying the best part of the break. (Photo by Mona Still)
