Fundraiser

By now you know that the LoCash Cowboys are coming to town on Dec. 15 at Liberty Center.  But did you know there will be a silent auction that evening as well?

Cliff Knickmeyer is a veteran of the U.S. Marine Corps and currently a LaMonte police officer.  During a pursuit of a suspect, he noticed something wrong with his toe.  He assumed that it was injured in the chase.  When it didn't heal for a week, he visited his physician and found out blood clots in his leg were to blame and he would require surgery.

Motorists may have seen a large covered wagon drawn by two horses traveling southbound on South Limit this morning (September 19).  The wagon was passing though Sedalia on a journey across the country known as the Freedom Trail Ride, honoring the fallen members of the military and supporting children with disabilities.

The third annual Sedalia-Pettis County United Way Campaign Kickoff was held at Convention Hall in Liberty Park on Thursday, August 30 at noon.  For the last three years, United Way has had celebrity chefs cook for the crowd to show how people can come together for the betterment of the community.

Kids, this weekend was a busy one.  We had two nights out at the Mark Twain Apartments Fundraiser out at Dukes and Boots.

The 2012 Pettis County Relay For Life is set to take place this Friday on the Missouri State Fairgrounds. In this event, teams are formed and they raise funds through pledges and other fund raising events leading up to the relay.  On Saturday night starting at 6, walkers will take turns going around the track for 12 hours.
