Elect working-class people

From Lanny Hofmeister

Creston

Why is it that the working class always ends up paying the price for the poor policy decisions and greed of the ones who were elected to be working for our best interests?

I believe its time to remove all of the politicians and replace them with common working
people who know how to be responsible for their spending and actions. The working
class have the votes, lets do it!!!

The McKinley Park Festival kicked off at 8:30 a.m. Saturday July 31 with a kids fishing contest. More than 150 kids participated in the contest. A bike parade ensued at 1 p.m. The parade was judged and two boys and two girls received new bikes. The Bill Riley Talent Show took place at the bandshell at 2 p.m. First-place contestants advanced to perform at the Iowa State Fair. And at 10 p.m., the Creston Shooters delivered an 18-minute fireworks display.

Starting school on Aug. 23, or earlier, is a good idea.
I agree, it prevents school from lasting too far into June.
I disagree, it is too early, especially if it starts before the end of the Iowa State Fair.
School should be year-round
