Kenney Potter, Ross Thomas A ‘“Bonnie’’ Life Now For Bonnie Bridges! “I made a lot of mouths drop open,” laughed Bonnie Bridges Tuesday in telling about her leaving her employment as manager of the Bessemer City Branch of Home Federal Sav- ings & Association. “After working fifteen years for the Association, I decided I would make a change,” she said. That change for the present, according to Bonnie, “is to just lie in the sun and maybe travel.” Mrs. Bridges started to work at Home Savings & Loan Association at its headquarters in Kings Mountain in 1968 after she had graduated from Tryon High School and Gaston Col- lege. She was first teller then bookkeeper and then loan officer prior to being transferred to the Bessemer City Branch as : manager. In October of this year she" would have beeh manager 4 for five years. Home Savings & Loan became Home Federal in February of 1982. In disclosing her plans, she. said, “I may try some other type of work in the future but right now I just want to get a sun tan.” Married to Dennis Bridges, they have two children, Rhonda, a freshman at Appalachian State University, and Ladd, a 7th grader at Bessemer City Junior BONNIE BRIDGES High School. * : “Rhonda is spending her spr- ing break in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., Mrs. Bridges said, adding, “I plan to pick her up at college to bring her home for the week-end.” And when Bonnie and her daughter get together, maybe they’ll compare sun tans! Mrs. Bridges says she plans to continue her membership in the Bessemer City Chamber of Com- merce. An active member, she serves .the Chamber as treasurer. Shelby Spring Festival Set At Historical Museum Spring in Shelby Days, the an- nual event on the courtsquare in Shelby, is changing its name to Shelby Spring Festival and being expanded to include all of Cleveland County. The expand- ed festival, which will be held on April 23 from 10 am. to 4 p.m. with a rain date of April 30, will include all the old activities plus new and exciting ideas that will make the Shelby courtsquare a colorful hub of county wide in- volvement.

There will be day long entertainment provided by area schools, individuals and groups, and food will be available from booths manned by various organizations. Started nine years ago, the ex- panded festival will be sponsored this year by the Shelby Art League, the Shelby Chamber of Commerce, the Shelby Mer- chants Association, Uptown Shelby Association, and the Cleveland County . Historical Museum. Volunteers from the community and the Cleveland County Working Artists Guild will help man the event. The southside of the cour- thouse will be set aside as in the past for student art where it will * be judged. Other areas will be for adult art, photography, ceramics and china painting. The success of the art exhibits will depend upon the quantitiy and quality of the entries. We will be block- ing off South Washington Street between Marion and Warren Streets to provide an ample area for entertainment. We invite all the “regulars” from years past, plus a variety of talent groups, combos, drama, magic shows, tumblers, clowns, cloggers, dancers as well as individuals to be part of this special springtime celebration.
