Pioneer Days is over. The Jail made around 550.00, the pie auction about 5500.00. A big thank you goes out to Rod Miller and Seven Feathers for building and donating the Jail, and all the Sheriffs for donating there time to make the arrests. Next year we might offer photos of the detainees. We had a great crowd with a couple complaints some of the tents were vandalized. Tamara will be taking over the application process. Seven feathers will continue to mark spaces and organize vendors. The performers may change for next year. Tentatively we have a Dean Martin impersonator for next year. Next year try to get more ads for entertainment. (on the radio and news papers) All the T-shirts sold!! We still have some hats available.

We'll have the space we need for the 150 @ the the fairgrounds.

The all staff meeting for the school district went very well. They wanted to thank everyone and handed out certificates of appreciation to those businesses that sponsored the event. The enrollment is up and the first day of school went well.

The timer on the north welcome sign is not coming on at the right times we will figure out what the problem is. Do we want to coordinate the lights and water? At this time the lights will stay on.
