  • Letters to the Editor

    Jul 3, 2024

    While the new signs placed around town are decorative, several are not street legal. I witnessed 2 near collisions caused by a sign and took it upon myself to move the nearby road construction sign slightly at the 2nd ave intersection, near the hospital, so drivers have a small window to peer thru for traffic barreling down airport hill at this intersection. I snapped a photo if you'd like that, or go see for yourself. The severe blind spot hazard this new sign placement has created has been ignored for too long. The decorative sign needs to...

SB 323 was sponsored by Sen. Jeremy T...

  • RIDE, Memories of Entertainment We've Had

    Mike Morgan|Jul 3, 2024

    RIDE is here at last and the whole town is welcoming friends and family to town for a big old time. It’s going to be a blast. I’ve got great memories of coming here before Lulu and I officially moved here in 2003, of the rodeo, parades and all that Roundup did to make me want to live here for good. I have been a member of the RIDE committee since 2006, and sang at the first RIDE in 2005. I have a firsthand appreciation of what effort it is to put on an event such as this or a rodeo. I thought I might give a little history of RIDE from pure mem...
