2021 04 07 CROCUS in RAIN

The sun was warm but the wind was chill.
You know how it is with an April day.
When the sun is out and the wind is still,
You're one month on in the middle of May.

 ABOUT MURRAY SWIMMING POOLS

2021 03 24 MRY swim pools

The Murray Village Ordinance 150.02 on swimming pools directs that a resident must FIRST get a permit through the Cass County Zoning Office, (402) 296-9359. Once the County Permit is obtained, it must be presented to the Village Clerk's Office, either in office or drop box outside, for review. As long as the pool is constructed WITHIN the resident’s property line, it will be approved through the Village. There is no building permit application fee for swimming pools.

NEBRASKA STATE CAPITOL

NEBRASKA'S LAWMAKERS in 107TH SESSION
(Patricia Zeigler, Editor)

Do you want to see what our elected Nebraska officials are doing? Think of them as your 'employees', because they are paid with your tax dollars.  As with any employer, you should want to see what they are doing to earn their pay.

Go to the Nebraska Legislature webpage, the official site of the Nebraska Unicameral Legislature.

On the left side of the 'Home' page you can see a variety of topics to check out. You'll find 'Bills and Laws', 'Senators', 'Reports' and a lot more. You'll find links to your representatives, too, so you can contact them directly. On the right side of the 'Home' page is also a link for live streaming sessions from NET.

Here's an example of what you can find.  Concerning voter fraud, LEGISLATIVE RESOLUTION 3CA, 2021, (LR3CA), is a proposed constitutional amendment that would require verification of identity prior to voting at general elections. The proposed amendment would require poll workers to review a photograph or digital image of each voter to verify his/her identity in a manner determined by the Legislature prior to allowing said person to vote.  Read about it HERE, where you can SUBMIT COMMENTS ONLINE to your representatives for LR3CA and also READ RELATED TRANSCRIPTS of the FLOOR DEBATES held so far.

Educate yourself with information directly from the source where our laws are made at the State Capitol in Lincoln.  Stay informed and vote at each election.  This knowledge, and acting upon it at the election booth, helps to preserve our precious democracy.

2020 10 07 LOGO CHILD SAVING INSTITUTE

All children need a secure place to learn and grow. The ideal place should be in their own home, however many kids are not that fortunate.

In times of neglect or abuse, a child must sometimes be removed from their home at a moment's noticed and placed in a warm, safe place. Kids of all ages, from birth through high school, sometimes need the help of the Child Saving Institute.

CSI helps foster parents and biological families learn the skills they need for a safe, well-cared-for, and loving family life.During this unsettling time of covid-19, the Murray Christian Church is collecting essential cleaning items for the Child Saving Institute.

If you would like to donate, here are some things they could use:Pine Sol, Lysol Disinfectant Spray, sanitizing wipes, latex and powder-free disposable gloves, (L & XL), and hand sanitizer.

Please bring items to Murray Christian Church, 304 W Young St, Murray, NE on Wednesdays, Thursdays or Fridays, between the hours of 10 - 2:00. You may call the church ahead of time, 402-235-2527, to be sure someone will be there to assist you.

Thank you for helping to keep these children, (and the CSI staff), healthy and happy!.

TEN YEARS AGO...

Vandalism hits Murray Parks, Biscuits & Gravy for Relay for Life, Plant Sale, a Fish Fry and a bunch of other events were planned!


canned food box 1

Even during the summer and amid the Covid19 crisis, the Conestoga Backpack Program continues to furnish food to local families in need. The program serves the Murray, Nehawka, Union and Beaver Lake areas in southeast Nebraska, and will not turn anyone away.

Just by adding a few of the items listed below to your shopping list and picking them up, you'll be helping someone in a big way. Keep in mind that some of the children are very young and are possibly 'preparing' their own meals, so easy-to-open containers are a good option for little hands.


Canned or boxed pasta
Canned soup
Granola bars
Fruit snacks
Dry pasta
Spaghetti sauce
Dry soup mixes
Canned meat (chicken, tuna)
Boxed prepared meal kits (Hamburger Helper, Rice-a-Roni)
Peanut butter
Jelly
Canned fruit and vegetables

Also needed are hygienic supplies, toothbrushes, toothpaste, soap, cotton swabs, tissues and toilet paper.

To make a monetary donation instead, a check made payable to 'CONESTOGA BACKPACK PROGRAM' may be mailed or deposited at Cornerstone Bank, 102 W Main St, Murray, NE 68409. 100% of all monies collected is used for food and hygienic supplies for the families.

To have the items picked up, call Jill at 402-660-3543 to make arrangements. As another alternative, you may drop them off at Cornerstone Bank in Murray or at their Beaver Lake location.

Your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!
