The Dean Mason Family fundraiser:
Unfortunately insurance is not covering any swallowing therapy and several other medical expenses.
The Youth Ball baseball/softball parents are going to donate all the concessions proceeds from the final home softball game on September 30th to the fund. They are serving grilled burgers, hot dogs and pizza, and all the money goes to help Dean and his family.
In an effort to get as many people as possible to attend the game, spread the word!

Back By Popular Demand!
Back by popular demand is The Plattsmouth Conservancy Haunted Victorian Ghost Walk!
The Ghost Walk will take place on the evenings of
Friday, October 11th and
Saturday, October 12th
from 7:30 – 10:00 p.m.
You will have the opportunity to follow the night watchman’s lantern through the enchanted hills of Plattsmouth where they will step inside four historic Plattsmouth homes and experience haunted tales of current and days gone by. You will also make stops during your walk and listen to stories of ghost hauntings in the local Plattsmouth area.
This is not your traditional “haunted house” event. We promise that no skeletons will pop out at you or giant spiders drop down on you (or at least that I know of). 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.
This is a walking tour so appropriate dress and walking shoes are recommended. There is a total of twelve blocks between the four houses with stops at each house where guests will be seated to listen to a haunted tale.
To make reservations please contact Sandra Allgeier @ sallgeier@windstream.net or (402) 296-2249. You may also purchase tickets at Antiques Off Main, 125 S 5th Street, Plattsmouth, Nebraska - (402) 296-3113.
If you are interested in attending the Ghost Walk I would encourage you to purchase your tickets early. Tickets are limited and we sold out quickly in previous years.
This really is a great event – I promise you will not be disappointed!
Best Wishes and Happy Halloween!

Seventh-Annual “Doggy Day” Planned at Bloom Where You’re Planted Farm
On Saturday, October 5th, Bloom Where You’re Planted Farm is going to the dogs for an event to benefit Happy Paws Animal Advocacy and the Plattsmouth Animal Shelter.
Farm owners Terry and Teresa Lorensen are inviting visitors to bring their canine companions to the farm for a day of exercise and exciting farm sights and smells. Doggy admission is $5.00 and all doggy admission proceeds will be donated to the Plattsmouth Animal Shelter and Happy Paws, a pet advocacy group that supports the shelter. Donation jars will be in place so that even those who don’t bring a dog can still participate.
Volunteers from the organizations will be on-site throughout the day with literature and pets which can be adopted from the shelter.
“Many of the animals we have here at the farm, including our dogs and cats, have been adopted, and we want to help other animals who need new homes,” said Teresa Lorensen. “It’s a cause we care a lot about.”
