Our condolences to the family and friends of Lyle Dankleff.
He was my Dad's room mate at Good Samaritan and we had
some pretty interesting conversations when I went for visits.
Condolences also to the family and friends of Norman
Neemann, who passed away Sunday, 9-21. He will be
buried in the Unadilla Cemetery.
Remember October is Breast Cancer Awareness
month - get out your "pink".
Volleyball, soccer, football -
so many games - so little time!
Congratulations to Lindsey Dankleff and Matthew
Miltner who were married 9-20.
The District Court records from Otoe County are now
located on the OCGS website. You can find them on the

Greenblatt & Seay proudly announce the Eighteenth ANNUAL SCHOOLHOUSE FIDDLING BEE. This historical, hysterical event will take place on Sunday, October 12, at 2:30 PM, downstairs in the Old Avoca, Nebraska Schoolhouse. In the Open Division, fiddlers will play a hoedown, a waltz, and a tune of choice. There will also be other divisions of competition available for the adventurous fiddlers, including a Singing Fiddler's Contest, a Twin Fiddler's Contest, a Fee-Fi-Faux Fiddler's Contest (fiddle tunes played on any instrument other than a fiddle), and a Hocus-Pocus Contest (cross-tuning, sound effects, dancing, etc.), which will give fiddlers an opportunity to play tunes that are usually not allowed in any other contest.
Contestants can pre-register on line (http://www.greenblattandseay.
Admission is $10.00 for adults, $5.00 for students, and $1.00 for children. Fiddlers and their back-ups are admitted for free. The contest will be followed by a light snack and an acoustic jam session.
