Service Organizations Are Important

Submitted by admin on Wed, 08/17/2022 - 7:59am

The Kiwanis came to Belleville in 1983. Over the years it has provided programs to help youth and contribute to the community. As with many organizations in our present society, we are facing a declining and aging membership. Some of our past efforts have helped foster community improvements like lake and highway cleanup, bike helmets and safety, pediatric EMS equipment and movies in the park. Today we support youth academic awards to encourage education, young readers (Bookworms), crosswalk flags, blood drives and special needs iPads. Will that continue?

Submitted by admin on Wed, 08/17/2022 - 7:56am

Dear Editor,
I wish to thank our New Glarus Community for once again stepping up to help us have a very successful Blood Drive on Friday at the Bible Church. The earlier times of 11:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. seemed to work out very well for all involved. We started out with 64 reservations, had a couple deferrals, several walk-ins and 10 that did the Power Red. We ended the day with 51 Whole Blood Products, 20 units from the Power Reds, totaling 71 Units.

Submitted by admin on Wed, 08/17/2022 - 7:55am

Mitchell Keith and Grant Keith are the recipients of the 8th and 9th annual William C. and Margaret L. Parmer Scholarship. This scholarship helps students with the high cost of their medical school education and was created by Parmer. The recipient must be from Green County and accepted or enrolled in Medical School. Margaret's husband, William, passed away in 2005 and this was something they had often talked about doing. It has been a wonderful experience for Margaret to see her vision come true and meet the recipients each year.

The Belleville and New Glarus Police Departments will be out with other law enforcement agencies throughout Wisconsin and the rest of the nation for the “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” crackdown on drunken drivers from August 17 through Labor Day.
Drunken driving is entirely preventable. If we can deter people from getting behind the wheel when they’re not sober, we will make progress toward the goal of reaching zero preventable traffic deaths in Wisconsin.
