Speak Out 4/1/17

Small crowd

I was wondering about in Thursday's paper there was just three pictures from the Indian Bowhunters Shoot. There was no write-up about it at all and they didn't show a photo of the winners. I'm a little disappointed. I'd like to have more information about this. Thank you.

(I was nice enough to cover the event on my day off and only 12 people showed up, so there was nothing to write about - you're welcome! - Paul)

Trash

cleanup time

I have a comment about all the trash up and down the new Bypass 67/60 going toward Dexter. My husband and I went on vacation in October. We came through Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee, and Kentucky each and their roadways were so clean. We got to Sikeston and started noticing trash on the roadway. As we approached Poplar Bluff it got worse. It has increased every week since and no one has cleaned it up. It is now March, six months later and much worse. We have lived here 19 years and never seen it this bad. Someone please clean it up! Don't know who's responsible but would like to see it cleaned up as it makes Poplar Bluff look cheap and dirty. Thank you.
