Missouri Community Betterment Judging Day
September 18, 2002

Who's afraid of the judges??
Not us, when they are as friendly & courteous as ours!
This year's Category II judges and their escort were
Mrs Al Briggs, Mr Scott Shelton & Mr Cecil Cliburn
We gave a power point presentation of our projects,
(Thanks again Michael Robbins for helping us with our presentation)
then took them on a tour of the town. We will not know the judges
decision until Oct. 28th at the MCB Conference in Columbia, Mo.

Category II is made up of towns with population of 310 to 645.
We are competing with nine other towns in our category.
Annapolis-South Iron, Clarksville, Fairfax, Hartville, Howardville,
Novinger, Polo, Ravenwood, & Tri-C Communities
More photos from judging day below:

Since Eagleville is known as "The Fireworks Capitol of The World"
the judges were each given a dozen long stem rockets!

 


 
Tuesday,
May 14, 2002, 6:00 pm - The Sr. & Jr. Community Betterment Clubs
will pick up litter around town, then will have a weiner roast at the City Hall Park.
Everyone is invited to join in one or both events!

Enjoying the weiner roast after the work!

 


 

Adopting this portion of the highway, allows the City of Eagleville
and the Community Betterment to landscape and mow the state right-a-way.
We would appreciate your efforts to help us keep this area litter free.
