Sadly we had to deal with a family with several outdoor only pitbulls for a couple years in our neighborhood. In that time a neighbors pet was destroyed by one, they frequently (as in several times a week) jumped the fence and roamed the neighborhood and were aggressive. When I called to report it I found that animal control is only available part time on certain days. If I called on a day they were not available, the police told me that UNTIL someone got hurt, they weren't coming. Nice, huh? It really is sad that in a town this size there aren't better protections. The whole thing was rediculous and until people in about a 2-3 block radius of this home started calling non stop for every little thing, nothing happened. Eventually they were removed, but again, it took years and organizing the neighborhood. It shouldn't be that hard, and people should be able to enjoy their own property without fear.

I just want to comment that I have been so happy with the medical care in this community, and I am sad to be leaving it. Our family has appreciated Dr Kemp and his staff, Dr Milburn and his staff, Dr Detwiler and his staff, and especially Gina in the parenting center at Newman. I am sure there are many other wonderful medical staff we havent' come in contact with, but I have been so happy with the ones who cared for us all these years.

Great. I would love to get my hands on these vandals. We lost a truck thanks to them in December. Sad that people have no respect for other people's hard earned property.

Well if they plan to stay in business I hope that they will focus on better service.

If you haven't tried braums in awhile, their service has gotten much better! Years ago we quit going becuase even though it was the best burger in town, they were always messing something up. They have the nicest guy working the drive thru most noons, and they are pretty speedy.
We won't miss popeye's. I think we got drive thru a few times, it was never anything special.
Montana Mikes, OMG. We had such a disappointment there a couple weeks ago. Went for a special birthday night out. They must have just had a huge turnover, because every single person we came in contact with was either brand new or training someone. I know everyone has to learn sometime, but it was irritating, the service was slooooooooooooow and the food was worse than usual.

My family loves the summer reading activites you plan, but honestly it seems like the library is just too small to hold most of the big activites. We gave up and stopped going becuase it was just so crazy to get around everyone and get to the different stations, etc. Is there any plan to expand the library or a possibility to hold some of the activites off site where it is easier for many to participate?

admireed, emporia IS a local taxpayer. Where the heck did that come from? Do you think educators don't pay taxes? Why don't you ask one how much of his or her own money is spent buying supplies and equiptment for their class? I hardly think the teachers are getting rich, lol.

I agree! we lived in Emporia for 5 years and went maybe twice in that time. Our new town has a similar center and it costs MUCH less, I am finding we do go a lot more often because price isn't as much of an issue. Also several times we tried to go and they had closed early, or asked us to leave not long after we got there so they could close early. It was all around just a turn off.
