AS MOST OF YOU KNOW, THE SMALL BEAUTIFUL TOWN OF BELLEVUE ALONG THE
MIGHTY MISSISSIPPI RIVER, HAS TWO K-12 SCHOOL DISTRICTS. BELLEVUE MARQUETTE CATHOLIC AND THE COMMUNITY DISTRICT. UNUSUAL OF
COURSE. THEY WORK TOGETHER, AND ENJOY BELLEVUE TOGETHER...
AND HAVE GREAT FACILITIES, GOOD ATHLETES AND GREAT STAFF. BELLEVUE
COMMUNITY IS IN THE PROCESS OF GETTING APPROVAL TO BUILD A NEW ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TO REPLACE A VERY OLD ONE.
AND BELLEVUE NOW HAS THEIR OWN KMAQ FM FREQUENCY. IN BELLEVUE AND IMMEDIATE RURAL AREA, ALL KMAQ-AM PROGRAMS ARE BROADCAST ON 92.5 F.M. NO STATIC...PERFECT RECEPTION IN BUILDINGS AND IN CARS AND
TRUCKS. KMAQ-AM SHOWS ARE NOW LOUD AND CLEAR DOWN IN THE
VALLEY. AND KMAQ-FM, 95.1 PROGRAMS, THANKS TO THE CITY, ARE ALSO
CARRIED ALL THE TIME ON THE LOCAL CABLE TV CHANNEL.
HOPE THE 2,000 PLUS CITIZENS OF BELLEVUE GET TO SEE THE PHOTO ABOVE
AND THE STORY WITH IT. GO COMETS! GO WARRIORS! GO TUG BOATS!
TOURISTS STOP ALL SUMMER LONG COME TO WATCH THE TUGS AND BARGES GO
THROUGH THE DOWNTOWN LOCK AND DAM. DEFINITELY WORTH WATCHING.
THE LOCK AND DAM IS BELLEVUE'S $BILLION TOURIST ATTRACTION YEAR
AROUND. AND THE VETERANS MEMORIAL ALONG THE RIVER IS ALSO WORTH
A TRIP TO SEE.
END OF MY BELLEVUE SERMON! AMEN!
