Good day Bulldog Backing Businesses!

Don’t forget to support your Lady Bulldogs Basketball Team that is going to Mizzou to play in the FINAL CHAMPIONSHIP! 
Paint/shoe polish your businesses windows, put a message on your marquee, make a sign and put it in your windows or along the highway (especially along Highway 54).  Let’s show our kids we are proud of them and support them!  I told Peggy we could make sandwich boards and I’d take highway 54 if she would wear one on Highway 32.  She reminded me we were too busy for such, but instead she said we are going to shoe polish our windows. Don’t forget…Wear your Red & Black!


Let’s paint the town
