THIS KIND OF WEATHER IS FORECAST FOR THE ENTIRE WEEK.
FRIDAY NIGHT, THE MAQUOKETA CARDINAL FOOTBALL TEAM DEFEATED
CASCADE, 53 TO 0. IT RAINED DURING MOST OF THE GAME.
THIS FRIDAY NIGHT, THE CARDS TRAVEL TO MACHESTER. THE HAWKS
ALSO WON BIG LAST FRIDAY NIGHT.
THIS PAST SATURDAY MORNING, SHORTLY AFTER 1 A.M....A BOLT OF LIGHTNING EXPLODED A TREE ON THE MAQUOKETA COUNTRY CLUB COURSE. IT SHATTERED THE BIG TREE AND MANY SAY IT WAS
THE LOUDEST "BANG" THEY HAVE EVER HEARD IN MAQUOKETA.
I SLEPT THROUGH IT.
THE FISH FRY SPONSORED BY THE JACKSON COUNTY HISTORICAL
SOCIETY YESTERDAY LATE AFTERNOON WAS A BIG SUCCESS.
IT WAS HELD TO RAISE MONEY FOR A NEW SHINGLE ROOF FOR THE LAMOTTE NARROW GUAGE RAILROAD DEPOT MOVED TO MAQUOKETA
NEAR THE CLINTON ENGINES MUSEUM THIS PAST JUNE.
YESTERDAY, FROM 4 UNTIL 5, DAVE KENDALL GAVE A PRESENTATION ON THE
BELLEVUE TO CASCADE RAILROAD, WHICH WENT RIGHT PAST WHERE HE LIVES TODAY AND HOME OF HIS ANNIE'S ACRES STRAWBERRY PATCH.
I SUGGEST YOU CONSIDER HIM TO GIVE A PROGRAM AGAIN, AT YOUR CLUB.
THE FISH FRY WAS HELD INSIDE THE CLINTON ENGINES MUSEUM AND
OUTSIDE IN A LARGE TENT. THE MAQUOKETA FOOTBALL TEAM SUNDAY MORNING HELPED OUTSIDE WITH SETTING UP FOR THE FISH FRY.
I'M GUESSING THEY SERVED AROUND 250.
MAQUOKETA POLICE OFFICER KEENAN MEINEKE INVESTIGATED A 2-CAR ACCIDENT FRIDAY NIGHT, INVOLVING SANDRA MILLER-HAMMERAND, AGE 48,
AND DAKOTA MANNING, AGE 22, BOTH OF MAQUOKETA. SANDRA WAS
GOING NORTH ON 200TH AVENUE WHEN DAKOTA ENTERED ON TO 200TH FROM 17TH STREET, TURNING LEFT, WHEN SHE HIT SANDRA.
NO INJURIES AND DAKOTA MANNING WAS ISSUED A CITATION.
ON THE ROTARY HOME PAGE, WHICH YOU CAN GET TO FROM
THE KMAQ HOME PAGE.
OVER 50 PEOPLE ENJOYED THE "OPERA" SATURDAY NIGHT AT MAQUOKETA ART EXPERIENCE. AND I WAS TOLD, THE MEMBERS OF IT ENJOYED
PRESENTING IT IN MAQUOKETA AND APPRECIATED THE MAQUOKETA
AUDIENCE RECEPTION.
HAVE A GOOD WEEK.
