IT'S SUMMERTIME!

(Click the lake above to hear the song by the Jamies!)

It's summertime, summertime, sum, sum, summertime,
Summertime, summertime, sum, sum, summertime,
Summertime, summertime, sum, sum, summertime,
Summertime, summertime, sum, sum, summertime, summertime...

Well shut them books and throw 'em away,
And say goodbye to dull school days,
Look alive and change your ways,
It's summertime!

Well no more studying history,
And no more reading geography,
And no more dull geometry,
Because it's summertime!

It's time to head straight for them hills,
It's time to live and have some thrills,
Come along and have a ball,
A regular free-for-all!

Well are you comin' or are you ain't,
You, slow-poke, are my one complaint,
Hurry up before I faint,
It's summertime!

Well, I'm so happy that I could flip,
Oh, how I'd love to take a trip,
I'm sorry teacher, but zip your lip,
Because it's summertime!

It's time to head straight for them hills,
It's time to live and have some thrills,
Come along and have a ball,
A regular free-for-all!

Well, we'll go swimmin' every day,
No time to work just time to play,
If your folks complain just say,
"It's summertime!"

And every night we'll have a dance,
Cause what's a vacation without romance,
Oh man this jive gets me in a trance,
Because it's summertime!

It's time to head straight for them hills,
It's time to live and have some thrills,
Come along and have a ball,
A regular free-for-all!
It's summertime!!

It's summertime, summertime, sum, sum, summertime,
Summertime, summertime, sum, sum, summertime,
Summertime, summertime, sum, sum, summertime,
Summertime, summertime, sum, sum, summertime, summertime...
It's Summertime!

YOUNG MEMORIAL PARK, MURRAY, NE.

Field Day is coming up fast and if you want to operate with us from the Murray Young Memorial Park Contact Roger, rb55930@windstream.net, soon to lock in our plans. We’d also love for you or anyone to stop by for a visit. We do tend to be a bit “laid back” in our operating philosophy, and would enjoy visits from friends we don’t see too often.

We are still “tailgating” in the parking lot at Burger King most Tuesdays, weather permitting, around six-ish.

 ABOUT MURRAY SWIMMING POOLS

The Murray Village Ordinance 150.02 on swimming pools directs that a resident must FIRST get a permit through the Cass County Zoning Office, (402) 296-9359. Once the County Permit is obtained, it must be presented to the Village Clerk's Office, either in office or drop box outside, for review. As long as the pool is constructed WITHIN the resident’s property line, it will be approved through the Village. There is no building permit application fee for swimming pools.

All children need a secure place to learn and grow. The ideal place should be in their own home, however many kids are not that fortunate.

In times of neglect or abuse, a child must sometimes be removed from their home at a moment's noticed and placed in a warm, safe place. Kids of all ages, from birth through high school, sometimes need the help of the Child Saving Institute.

CSI helps foster parents and biological families learn the skills they need for a safe, well-cared-for, and loving family life.During this unsettling time of covid-19, the Murray Christian Church is collecting essential cleaning items for the Child Saving Institute.

If you would like to donate, here are some things they could use:Pine Sol, Lysol Disinfectant Spray, sanitizing wipes, latex and powder-free disposable gloves, (L & XL), and hand sanitizer.

Please bring items to Murray Christian Church, 304 W Young St, Murray, NE on Wednesdays, Thursdays or Fridays, between the hours of 10 - 2:00. You may call the church ahead of time, 402-235-2527, to be sure someone will be there to assist you.

Thank you for helping to keep these children, (and the CSI staff), healthy and happy!

The Conestoga Backpack Program continues to furnish food to local families in need. The program serves the Murray, Nehawka, Union and Beaver Lake areas in southeast Nebraska, and will not turn anyone away.

Just by adding a few of the items listed below to your shopping list and picking them up, you'll be helping someone in a big way. Keep in mind that some of the children are very young and are possibly 'preparing' their own meals, so easy-to-open containers are a good option for little hands.

Also needed are hygienic supplies, toothbrushes, toothpaste, soap, cotton swabs, tissues and toilet paper.

To make a monetary donation instead, a check made payable to 'CONESTOGA BACKPACK PROGRAM' may be mailed or deposited at Cornerstone Bank, 102 W Main St, Murray, NE 68409. 100% of all monies collected is used for food and hygienic supplies for the families.

To have the items picked up, call Jill at 402-660-3543 to make arrangements. As another alternative, you may drop them off at Cornerstone Bank in Murray or at their Beaver Lake location.

Your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!
