Did you know that about 20% of all toilets leak?

Consumers can lose 200 or more gallons of water a day,

that's approximately 8000 gallons a year of wasted water and

unnecessary expense. You can check for a leaky toilet by 

putting a few drops of food coloring in the tank. After 15 minutes,

if color appears in the bowl, you have a leak that should be

repaired. If you need help performing this test, please call the

Village Office at 402-828-5355.

The memory of the storms last week will be with us for

awhile. Wednesday evening we woke up to a terrible crash.

The lightening had hit tow trees next to our house and the

force was so great it knocked the clock and a picture off

the wall. Examining those trees after sunrise, we discovered

the bark stripped from our red maple and the cottonwood

tree had huge chunks missing (turning our driveway into

an obstacle course.) Since the trees didn't actually split

apart, only time will tell if they will survive. By Friday we

had nearly 3" of rain.

Will and Jill, two of Unadilla Bill's children, have taken

up residence in the History Room at the Community

Center. They have agreed to allow their photo to be

published.
