Few attend city’s initial budget hearing

How about fireworks??? Where is that in the budget? The city that founded Veteran's Day, can't celebrate the country's independence!! How do you think the Veteran's would feel about that?

Fair Board to tighten rental rules

I called and left 3 messages with the fair board several months ago about renting, and no call was ever returned. I also work with someone who left several messages and their call was not returned either. There is limited renting options in this town, and it was very disappointing for no one to even return my calls. How hard would it have been to call back and say that they are limiting their rental at this time, or currently changing renting rules.

Group gives Braille flag to ex-teacher

I found a website that has pictures of braille flags.

http://www.kbti.org/flags.html

The article got my curiousity going and I had to see them for myself. I think they look pretty cool. If you double click on the flags the will pop up enlarged and you can see the braille on them.

More Tyson workers laid off

Why relocation? Why isn't Tyson giving workers the opportunity for education, training, and earning job skills to fill another niche right here in Emporia? Maybe all these people don't want to move, they are invested in this community, let's keep them here. Diddie and Modine gave employees educational choices.
