Council Grove Junior/Senior High School hosted its spring student blood drive on March 9, attracting students and faculty that were eager to make a difference.
After having several 2 ½ hour council meetings, last week’s 1 hour meeting was a pleasant change. While shorter, we still managed to continue the process of making updates to our ordinances and had positive discussions on future items that will come before the body.
Kansas Supreme Court Justice Caleb Stegall visited Council Grove Jr./ Sr. High School Tuesday morning, speaking with junior and senior students about the foundations of law, government, and the American constitutional system. Stegall was introduced by District Magistrate Judge Laura Viar before addressing the students as part of the Kansas Supreme Court’s outreach program. Twice each year, the justices travel across Kansas to hear a case outside the state capital and visit local schools to explain the role of the judicial system. During this trip, the court was scheduled to hear a case later that evening in Abilene.
On March 2, the Chase County Sheriff’s Office hosted a group of agencies for police K9 training. The K9s were from the Kansas Bureau of Investigation, Morris County Sheriff’s Office, Geary County Sheriff’s Office and Dickinson County Sheriff’s Office.
