Maddock

We recently renewed contact with Dave Scott. He and Maryann are on an extended visit to family and friends in CA and are getting settled into an apartment there. Dave was very instrumental in getting the Horizons program going in Maddock and I for one recognize his key position in setting it up. The two pictures are of Dave, Maryann and L  Louise Olson at one of the early Study Circles and the second is of Dave and Maryann at the initial blogging training that people from Maddock participated in at Harvey. They plan to be back in Maddock in time for the All-School Reunion.Their email address is: <lanscotservices@verizon.net> if anyone wishes to add words of appreciation.

Horizons of Maddock hosted an informational and Celebration Dinner at the Multi-Purpose Buiding at noon on April 27. This dinner was a cooperative effort of Horizons and various organizations and individuals who are making progress towards keeping Maddock alive and improving its chances of doing so. Two new initiatives were brought to the public’s attention with a Q & A time for further information. First, the proposed Mill Levi for the county Ambulance fund was explained in detail by Marne Stadum. Second, the newly appointed Maddock Housing Board was announced and chairman Larry Summers gave a few of the initial steps that they are considering. We celebrated together with a report of the After School Activities Program given by Kathy Daeley, an update on the Community Development Director by Lu Mathison, and recognition of others who are making significant contributions to the well-being of Maddock. Thanks to Sharon & Mark, Yvonne and others from Maddock Cafe and Lanes, a wonderful meal of ham, meatballs, mashed potatoes, corn and cole slaw was enjoyed by many and missed by others.
