According to barbecue organizers at the annual Ayr Days celebration last weekend, over 1,800 came through the
lines to be served Saturday night. Crowds much larger than that were on hand for the hour long parade Saturday afternoon.
Members of the Scottish Highlanders from the University of Iowa joined to march in the Ayr Days parade and presented a
concert of pipe and drum music as part of the day's Scottish flavor.
The only doctor on staff at the Ringgold County Hospital who is still delivering babies, Dr. Hema PATEL, for the
present has delivered her last baby at the RCH. Dr. PATEL reports she would take up deliveries again when she
could get some support from other physicians who also would like to deliver babies.
