Cottonwood
and area history continued; Remember When; Deadline of March 10 set for
story submissions
The time frame here is the 1980s. As most of you know, history repeats
itself, not only on a day to day basis but year to year and even over 100-year
periods. . . .
How many times have you heard your children say “I didn’t know that?”
We all know that happens too often when it comes to our history. . . .
At the Feb. 9 meeting of the 150-year committee a cutoff date of March
10, 2012, was set for the stories to be submitted. They don’t want to go
any later than this if the book is to be in print by August. . . .

WOW what a change. The Seniors In Shape group
completed their 10th week of exercise at the community hall. They
have come a long way. There used to be a lot of cars parked in front
of the hall. Now that they are in better shape many of the folks
are running down to the class. It has been heard that our town police have
said that the speed limit is still only 20 mph, even if you are running,
in front of the school, so watch out. All kidding aside, we want
to thank the instructors, Shelli Schumacher and Annabelle Gonzales for
giving of their time, and Carol Altman for opening up and turning on the
heat for these sessions. Click on the photo for a larger view.
