The Unadilla Area Fund met Tuesday, 7-15, at the
Community Center Library. Those attending were Bob Brandt,
Peggy Leefers, Larry Larson, Barb Wilhelm, Maureen
Vogt, and Corinne Zahn. The BBQ items were reviewed and
suggestions noted for next year. Dan Masters has agreed
to do the BBQ again in 2015. Corinne reported the estimates
were in for replacing the roofs on the gym and the
Community Center and they were approximately $46,000.
The members voted unanimously to give the Village
$10,000 for the roof repairs. The next meeting will be
in October.

Condolences to the family and friends
of Dale Wallen.
Bob Wilhelm would like to remind everyone to stop by the
Bingo stand in the air conditioned Fair Center during the
County Fair. The proceeds help fund local youth programs.
It's always lots of fun!
Several members of Legion Post #100 worked at the
baseball tournament last weekend.

NEWS FROM 100 YEARS AGO

Friday, 7-24-1914, The Otoe Union:
"William Halbasch reports 66 bushels of oats per acre."
"The steel bridge one mile west of town has been
completed....The bridge men are now putting a steel
bridge across the same stream near the Douglas farm
between here and Palmyra." Four wagons of
"gypsies" passing through town caused a lot
of excitement.
