The Unadilla Area Fund met last Tuesday night. Minutes will be available soon. We had a nice turn out.

The Saturday morning Farmer's Market is on hold for awhile. We'll let you know when it's back up and running. again.

 

We're glad to report that Bingo is making a return to the Otoe County Fair!

 

 

We've had so many donations to the Resource Room. Hundreds of funeral cards and newspaper clippings, among other things. Now to get them all filed. Can we help you with your family research?

 

 

 

 

 

Be careful in this heat and stay hydrated. We've already reached 100 at the Western Wilhelm Outpost once this year. Predictions indicate we may reach it again at least once in the next two weeks.
