Thank you to all of you folks who worked so diligently manicuring your yards and touching up your properties for summer.  Valley City is looking “well kept”, thanks again and please continue your great efforts.

Tagging on the aforementioned, thank you to our city crews for facilitating clean-up week and branch pick-up, you are special. Our community is looking marvelous.

If you have neighbors who need help with their yards, please consider helping 🙂

Tuesday, June 3rd, at 6:30 there is an open house at Valley City High School.  Enter door N2 and enjoy food, tours and a public meeting.  If you are opposed to the project at this point, please take a little time to attend and see if there is any “new information”.  For Sue and me, it appears it would cost us less with the school project and the property tax reform bill than we paid this year.  As a face of our community, a new school will help entice people to live here versus driving here and taking their pay checks to other communities.  I’d rather they’d be paying taxes in Valley City helping us all.

Many people have challenges in their lives, the following is from a friend’s column:  “Keep the Faith.”  Paul said it to Timothy. “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, and I have kept the Faith.”  FSW has faced obstacles that required him to fight the good fight.  I don’t know when the race will end, but I know I must keep the Faith in a Lord that has blessed me.” ~ Friday Sports Wrap, thank you Oly.

Thank you to all who provide and proof material for this column.

“The willingness of America’s veterans sacrifice for our country has earned them our lasting gratitude.”  ~ Jeff Miller
