A LITTLE SUNSHINE THIS MORNING...THEN WINDY AND COOL THIS AFTERNOON.

MAQUOKETA FIREMEN WERE CALLED TO A FIRE AT THE DAVE BRADY HOME AT 20337 22ND STREET JUST AFTER 8 LAST NIGHT. AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM CAUSED THE OUTSIDE SIDING TO CATCH ON FIRE. FIREMEN SAID SOME SMALL FLAMES WERE SHOWING WHEN THEY ARRIVED AND THEY QUICKLY PUT THE FIRE OUT.

THE MAQUOKETA COMMUNITY SCHOOL BOARD MEMBERS OFFICIALLY APPROVED THE MAQUOKETA SCHOOL DISTRICT EDUCATION FUND.
THE FUND, ESTABLISHED IN 2002, IS MANAGED BY THE MAQUOKETA AREA FOUNDATION. IN EACH OF THE LAST TWO YEARS, THE BOARD HAS DISTRIBUTED $14,000. THERE ARE 10 PEOPLE ON THE ADVISORY COMMITTEE....CAROL GISEL, BRIAN HINGTGEN, AL TUBBS, CHUCK WOLFE, TRACY WALLER, JEAN ANDERSON, JOANNE EVANS, JANE SCHMIDT, TERI TAYLOR AND KIM HUCKSTADT.

SLOW LOCAL NEWS DAY...SORRY.
