·     Local Business leaders and government officials from across the county met in an Eads Chamber of Commerce-sponsored forum to present updates on projects taking place throughout Kiowa County.

·     Many friends gathered at the park in Haswell for the annual Community Fish Fry.

Old Jasper Blankenship bought a deer license again this year, just as he’s done every year since Eisenhower was President. He sticks nickels and dimes in a jar all year long and smiles each time he contributes. By Fall, he’s saved up enough for a deer tag.

Jasper lives full-time out at the diggin’s with his dog, Arthur, of course, so he has only to walk about 100 feet from the cabin to do his hunting. That’s one of the marvels of it.
