September Adrian Optimists Students of the Month announced

The Adrian Optimist Club is pleased to honor Students of the Month from the Miami, Ballard, and Adrian schools. Criteria for this honor center on outstanding academic and civic achievement and school spirit. Staff at each of the schools make the selection, and their decision is based on expansion of these criteria. Selection is based on the criteria, but a student stepping up to a particular task will come to play in it. Each student is honored with a certificate of recognition from the Adrian Optimist Club and $20.00 in Adrian Chamber of Commerce “Chamber Bucks”.

The Ballard Student of the Month for September is Sheena Wainscott, Junior daughter of Roger and Lori Wainscott. High school English instructor, Jim Kershner states “Sheena is a conscientious student who has always worked hard to complete any task given her. She is a self-motivated person who sets goals for herself and works hard to achieve those goals. She seldom has to be told to do things. When something needs to be done, Sheena willingly steps forward and works until the job is completed. Unlike many who want an organization’s office but not the work that it entails, she accepts the responsibility of a leadership position and does not shirk its demands.”

Bulldog volleyball coach and art instructor Katie Reece adds “(Sheena) is very creative and cheerful and works well with others.”

The Adrian Student of the Month is Lesley Cox. Lesley, a Senior, is the daughter of Lynn and Jesse Willerton and Doug and Pam Cox. She shows her personal drive working in National Honor Society, Spanish Club, FCCLA, Student Council, FBLA, Basketball, Softball, and Senior Class Treasurer. She also works in the community in Club Softball; as well as coaching younger girls to pitch in fast pitch softball. Lesley thanks her Mom and Dad for pushing her to do her best and be successful; she credits their support for providing her personal drive today. Lesley plans on attending a four year university to play softball while majoring in physical therapy with a minor in psychology.

Jozie Quigg is the Miami Student of the Month for September. The Miami staff selected Jozie, a Senior, as a result of her strong work ethic and her positive attitude on class work. She is seen as being a very positive influence on her peers. Jozie credits these traits to her Mother, Cindy Limpus. Jozie is inspired by her Mother’s hard work encouraging her to be the best person she can be. Playing Basketball and advancing in Spanish are Jozie’s major personal efforts just now, but she finds encouragement in hanging out with friends, riding horses, and drawing. After High School she plans to go to college for Cosmetology.

Notes from last night's meeting of the Butler City Council

In Butler City Council activity, we'd like to mention that Mayor Don Malan and the Council does the Pledge of Allegiance to our Country at the beginning of each meeting a good move, that we appreciate.
In Council action, it was decided that no action needs to be done, really, in using the word "Use" tax in place of "sales" tax on purchases of vehicles, trailers, boats and other such items. The court says it should be this way, although there'll be no change in the amount of the tax. They're just keeping the records straight.

And they haven't made a decision on ads at the city park. More on that later. And plans continue on the Trail of Memories that's being extended north on the park property, up to around the tennis courts and over onto hospital property.
