15th Annual C.O.P.S. for Kids Easter Egg Hunt
Posted Sunday, February 28, at 10:38 PM
On Saturday March 20th at Cedar Park the Trumann Police Department will host our annual C.O.P.S. for Kids Easter Egg Hunt. All Children 6th grade and under can participate in the hunt. The games will begin this year at 10:OO a.m. and the hunt itself at 12:00 noon.

Everything is free(hot dogs, chips, drinks, a moon walk, a castle maze, and a hayride with the easter bunny!) thanks to the donations of the public and local merchants!

There will be special prize eggs hidden that will win you a big Easter Basket filled with Goodies!

Be sure to register for the bike drawing that will take place after the easter egg hunt.

The Age divisions will be:

Kindergarten and under

1st and 2nd grade

3rd and 4th grade

5th and 6th grade

I hope to see you all out there for a good family fun filled day. This is something I've taken part in for the eleven years I've been here. I think its a good thing for the community and all of us.

Now for those interested, a little background on the program.

The C.O.P.S For Kids Program was developed by three officers in 1994(Larry Blagg, Ronnie Dye and Jamie Carter.) C.O.P.S stands for Concentrating On Public Schools. The program was such a success that the Trumann Chamber Of Commerce awarded the three with outstanding achievement awards in 1995. The program was developed to help educate kids in the areas of illegal drugs, 9-11, bike safety and other areas of interest. The Dare program came along and now it focuses on special events, school programs, and our annual Easter Egg Hunt.

As a final note, It's been a while since I've written. I've been pretty busy with a new promotion as well as a new addition to the family. Those who know me definitely know I'm never at a loss for words and always have an opinion about things. I'll try to post a bit more often and keep you updated on other community activities along with my own thoughts when the mood strikes.

Confused about blog
Posted Thursday, August 20, at 5:08 PM

It has come to my attention that several people may perhaps be confused about my online blog. Let's see if I can clear things up a bit. A blog(according to definition)is: "a type of website, usually maintained by an individual with regular entries of commentary, descriptions of events, or other material such as graphics or video."...

What? You've got to be kidding!

That was my immediate response as I sat in the June city council meeting. I was sitting directly behind Luther Blagg, Brenda Blagg, and Tammy Blagg. We along with several other friends, co-workers, and family members were listening to a very fitting proclamation being read by the mayor. ...

Trumann Water and Sewer
Posted Friday, April 10, at 4:46 PM

You truly never now how much you rely on something until you don't have it. Luckily that hasn't been our case in Trumann so far. I was reading an article which stated "In 2006, waterborne diseases were estimated to cause 1.8 million deaths each year while about 1.1 billion people lacked proper drinking water." It made me realize how truly lucky we were to have quality drinking water available to us in Trumann. ...

Max Bishop's Fight Night 17: November to Dismember
Posted Sunday, November 23, at 1:55 PM

I'm a big fan of the UFC. No, actually, I'm a HUGE fan of the UFC. UFC to me, is what Football is to Aaron Riddle. Those of you who know Aaron, know that he lives and breaths football. Aaron is the only person I know who can sit down in front of a XBOX console with Madden 2008 and enter a time warp. He eventually looks up and wonders why it is dark all of a sudden when it was light outside...

Faith
Posted Wednesday, November 12, at 11:42 PM

Jinger was just talking about the eighties, so funny coincidence, but no this isn't all about the 80's song by George Michael. It's really about faith. Wikipedia defines Faith as this: Faith is a belief in the trustworthiness of an idea. Formal usage of the word "faith" is usually reserved for concepts of religion, as in theology, where it almost universally refers to a trusting belief in a transcendent reality, or else in a Supreme Being and said being's role in the order of transcendent, spiritual things.. ...

Love
Posted Monday, September 1, at 5:22 PM

Love as defined by wikipedia: Love represents a range of emotions and experiences related to the senses of affection and sexual attraction. The word love can refer to a variety of different feelings, states, and attitudes, ranging from generic pleasure to intense interpersonal attraction. This diversity of meanings, combined with the complexity of the feelings involved, makes love unusually difficult to consistently define, even compared to other emotional states...
