Haunted Victorian Ghost Walk
PLATTSMOUTH, NE –The Plattsmouth Conservancy Inc. is the host of the 2010 Haunted Victorian Ghost Walk. The event will be held in Plattsmouth on Friday, October 22, and Saturday, October 23, 2010. The walk will start at 7:30p.m. each evening and conclude at 10:00 p.m.
Step back in time and visit historical homes and buildings nestled within the haunted hills of Plattsmouth.
Follow the night watchman to each location to experience a chilling evening of frightful ghost stories from present day and years gone by.
Guests will travel by foot with lantern carriers to three historic homes and the historic Cass County Court House under the care of the night watchman. Along the way story tellers will tell true ghost stories from the local Plattsmouth area.
Guests will also have the opportunity to step inside the historic homes and courthouse and listen to Victorian Ghost Stories and Nebraska Ghost stories portrayed by a cast of actors in Victorian period attire.
Following the walking tour all guests are invited to meet at the Historic Plattsmouth Public Library for light refreshments and a viewing of the silent movie “Dracula”.
This is not your typical “Haunted House” event. There will be no skeletons popping out at you or giant spiders dropping down on you. But.. perhaps you will catch a glimpse of a ghostly spirit who chooses to make their presence known at this time of year when the veil between our world and the spirit world is most easily penetrated.
Tickets are $20 each and can be purchased at “Antiques Off Main”, 125 South 5th Street, Plattsmouth, Nebraska. They can also be purchased through the mail by contacting Leigh Jean Koinzan at the contact information above. Advanced reservations are required.
To view a copy of the event flyer and pictures of the tour locations visit: www.plattsmouthconservancy.org.

For Immediate Release:
Educating Nebraska’s Future Leaders
September 17, 2010 – Nebraska Attorney General Jon Bruning is again seeking members for his Youth Advisory Council (AGYAC). This is the ninth annual invitation to high school students, who are interested in learning more about our state government.
AGYAC is composed of high school students, who are selected each year to represent schools and communities from across the state. The opportunity to participate is available to high school juniors and seniors. AGYAC members learn about state government and criminal justice issues at a one-day conference in Lincoln. The daylong event features tours of the Capitol and Penitentiary, and includes discussion forums with some of Nebraska's top elected officials.
AGYAC membership offers an excellent chance for students from District 2 to learn about our government and criminal justice system, fine-tune their leadership skills and enjoy the rewards that are derived from civic involvement. The Attorney General’s director of programs reports that ten students from District 2 participated in AGYAC in the past four years. These students said that AGYAC provided a valuable learning experience.
The opportunity to get involved is also open to parents of the members, as well as to educators. During the conference, lunch will be provided for students. However, a small fee will be charged for parents and educators.
Members of AGYAC can be nominated by educators or their state senator. If you are a high school junior or senior who attends a public or private school in District 2, and would like for me to recommend you for membership on the Attorney General's Youth Advisory Council, please send me your resume and a brief statement that explains why you would be a good candidate to represent District 2 on AGYAC.
Applications for AGYAC membership are due to Attorney General Bruning’s office by Friday, October 15, 2010. All of the application forms can be mailed from my legislative office or downloaded from the Attorney General’s web site at www.ago.state.ne.us
We welcome your contacts by mail, phone or email.

Dear Louisvillians,
Have you enjoyed the weather the past few days, as we transition between the seasons? Have you found yourself enjoying the crisp autumn mornings and warm afternoon sunshine? Perhaps you are spending more time outdoors, doing fall activities and attending fall events. Have you seen the indicators on our Main Street that signal a change in the seasons...the lovely flags that accent the poles? Maybe you're anxiously awaiting Wednesday, September 22, 2010 at 10:09 p.m., when autumn officially begins (according to Jim Flowers on WOWT). (You might also be wondering how Monday's temperatures in the 90s really fit in with the fall theme...sorry no answers there!) Here's a brief poem in honor of the event you may or may not celebrate this week:
F inally...it's arrived for those fall fans...the
I cy chill in the air that reminds us that Old Man Winter is near.
R ed is the color donned by many, as Nebraskans cheer on their
S uper Husker teams...
T ouchdowns and tailgates and trees of color...all are part of fall.
D ancing through the air,
A utumn leaves drift from branch to grass, curled on the edge, zapped of color-- another
Y ear over, branches bear.
O range pumpkins and
F all foliage adorn our homes and yards...
F ields are harvested and
A utumn is evident through the winds and temperatures of this season many
L ove to celebrate and
L ive in the lovely land of Louisville.
Have a wonderful week, Louisvillians!
