Chester’s 23rd Annual MLK Day of Service

A lot of activity going on in Chester today. Unfortunately, there’s no central location that consolidates the schedule of all activities, but the MLK Commemorative Committee of Chester & Vicinity always brings a high quality program.

Here’s a few photos from their event:

Devon Walls, Twyla Simpkins, Mayor Thaddeus Kirkland, Will Richan , Rev. Dr. Bayard S. Taylor, Major Ervin McKoy
