It appears to me that a few people are upset with themselves for not thinking of this, and jealous that they're not getting the credit for this Honorable Cause.
Just a thought, Next time either "Step-Up or Shut-Up" !!!
Keep up the good work Jessie !!!

I'm voting for a story that made all of Emporia shine! My pick is for the Emporia Eagles #2587 "Care Package Fund Drive". Our community came together and made it happen with huge success.
THANKS EMPORIA !!!

Putting it to a public vote and the majority rules is the only fare way to put an end to this nonsence. Unless of corse CAE gets to count the ballots.

A Draft Dodger? maybe not. More like a Coward! I'm not ashamed of who I am and don't have to hide behind a phony name.

On Sacred Heart students collect for soldiers

I'd like to extend a BIG! Thanks to Sauder Custom Fabrication Inc. for their very generious donation of 2 Gross of AA & AAA batteries. My guess is that along with the Gummi Bears & Beef Jerky, the batteries will be amoung the first things to be grabbed up by the troops.

On Packages for Soldiers: Show you care

I too am also saddened by this because I was to be in the parade representing the Kansas Army National Guard. However, we can still come together as a comunity and show our support for our troops. Lets start filling those CARE PACKAGE Boxs If anyone has questions about what to send or where you can donate, just call the Fraternal Order Of Eagles #2587 at 620-342-1553 or contact me at 620-757-5633

On No parade; service moved

I'm all for doing anything to help beautify Emporia. I agree that this "Eye-Sore" need to go. But what I would really like to know is, when is something going to be done about the ruins of the old Santa Fe Depot???

On City clears way for Demolition

Posted on October 23 at 10:40 a.m.

I remember the night the Depot burned. At the time, I was living just up the street. I also remember all the "questionable" reasons for the cause of the fire. I, along with many other Emporians believe that Santa Fe Railroad should have been held accountable. But thanks to a big tax free bankroll, (at Emporia's expence) and a few shifty lawyers, they got away clean.
Now nine years later, the vacant lot still remains littered with the rubbled remains of a once historic building. The lot is a real "eye-sore" and a "Black Eye" for the Emporia community.
I think that the Santa Fe Railroad should STILL be held accountable for the property, TODAY!!!
