Pat Hare agrees with Tracy McCarol About: Two cents worth: Base of dome should have been broader To ColumbiaMagazine.com: I agree with Tracy McCarol, the dome does not do anything for the Justice Center.

Cooperation can get things done About: Courthouse Thermometer on Courthouse lawn To ColumbiaMagazine.com: The $150.00 approved by the court was only for the discounted cost by The Sign Factory for the vinyl lettering. Ann Melton told the group that if the court didn't approve she would pay for the letters. Haskin Coomer & Sons donated the lumber and backing board. Jeffries Hardware donated the paint. MSP, Inc. prepared the sign and workers from the D Class facility helped erect the sign. Just wanted to give credit to these community betterment minded firms and show how cooperation can get things done quickly. s/Bobby D.

Two cents worth: Base of dome should have been broader About: Adair Justice Center With and Without Rotunda Dome To ColumbiaMagazine.com: Ed, It maybe just me, but the new dome on the justice center looks awful. I agree the dome needed to be taller, but it needed to be totally reconfigured, not just raised it up. The base of the dome should have been much broader and the arch of the dome needed to be taller. That's just my two cents and I am sure many of people see it that way. s/Tracy McCarol 2009-12-19 11:26:12 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback

Glyn England: One of the best in the state The just retired custodian made an important difference every single day for the kids at Sparksville Elementary School, just as his counterpart, Mr. Gene Tedder, did at Knifley Grade Center About: A note on Glyn England retirement from schools By Alan W. Reed, former principal Knifley Grade Center As a long-time principal in this county, I had the pleasure of being a guest in Sparksville Grade Center (Glyn's school) many times over the years.
