Hayfork a place of kindness
      Once again, our proud community of Hayfork has reared its benevolent head and "risen" to the occasion! I would like to personally thank the Hayfork Rotary and Hayfork High School's Booster Clubs and the school staff for sponsoring and organizing a fundraiser barbecue and cake auction.
