TWO MAQUOKETA TEENAGERS, BRAYDEN SPRINGER AND ANTHONY KELLY,
WERE ARRESTED IN ANAMOSA THIS WEEK AND ARE FACING BURGLARY CHARGES. ANAMOSA POLICE SAID OVER THE PAST WEEKEND, ABOUT TWO
DOZEN BURGLARIES HAPPENED IN THEIR CITY...IN CARS, STORAGE SHEDS AND
GARAGES. THE TWO FROM MAQUOKETA AND A TEENAGER FROM ANAMOSA

FIVE PHOTOS TAKEN YESTERDAY OF THE AREA WHERE ONCE....THERE WERE TWO SWIMMING POOLS.
GOING, GOING, GONE!
THEY BOTH NEEDED TO GO!
BUT...WE NOW HAVE SOMETHING BETTER...A YEAR-AROUND INDOOR POOL
AT THE YMCA!
BUT...I NEVER LEARNED TO SWIM!
DENNIS VOY
I'M SURE, MANY OF YOU HAVE GREAT MEMORIES AT THOSE TWO OUTDOOR POOLS!
