Get well wishes to Bev Crownover, Maureen Vogt, and Steve Kroese. Also, please keep those with Covid in your thoughts as the numbers in Otoe County have really risen this past week.

 

 

 

 

Congratulations to Justin & Hannah Walden on the birth of their daughter, Kennedy Hassler Walden. She was 19 1/2 inches long and weighed 7 lb. 13 oz. Grandmother: Karen Hassler, and Great-Grandmother: Rose Marie Brandt. Welcome Kennedy!

 

 

 

Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday, Febr. 10, 11, and 12, from 9:15 - 12:00, the Village Office will be closed for virtual mandatory Treasurer training, as outlined in LB781. Thank you in advance for your patience!

 

 

 

Looking for something to celebrate since Groundhog's Day was cancelled? Friday is both Lincoln's birthday and the beginning of the Chinese New Year, Sunday is Valentine's Day, and Monday is President's Day. Just pick one!

 

 

 

Need to get out of the house for an hour? Don't forget our exercise room is open and it has some great equipment (and a tv). There is also a big gymnasium to walk in. Individual memberships are only $25 a year. If you're looking for an organized workout, Kirsten Walters Boot Camp meets on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Last week, Sharon Demaree and Peggy Leefers delivered 18 bears and bunnies to the Child Advocacy Center in Lincoln. The center provides services for about 100 children a month. Thank you ladies and to all the other folks who contributed fabric, decorations, and other supplies. Our community rocks!

Don't forget to perform a "Random Act of Kindness" on Febr. 17th. You never know how you might make a difference in someone's life. 

 

 

 

This is one of the photos we shared last week. So far, it has 45,319 hits, 54 comments, and 305 shares on our Unadilla Bill Facebook page. Isn't that just crazy? Way to go out in a blaze of glory Bill!!!

 

 

 

We've gotten a lot of feedback on the article Bob wrote about the old bridge (now named the Barb Kastens bridge!) on the old highway. Does anyone have plat books from the 1930's we could copy? It would be most appreciated.
