Throwback Thursday (on Wednesday)

 

11/15/2010 – 11/22/2010

The Exeter Police Department is announcing that we will be participating in the Nebraska Office of Highway Safety “Click It Or Ticket” enforcement that will be occurring from November 22nd to November 28th. Exeter Officers are currently scheduled for an additional 40 hours of patrol time during this period for which all wages will be paid for by the program’s grant. The program, as well as the associated enforcement, will focus on child restraint and safety belt law compliance.

The Exeter United Sunday School collected money for UNICEF during the  month of October.  They collected change during their church service and participated in the Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF initiative.  They raised $119.31 that has been sent to the U.S. Fund for UNICEF. The Exeter United Sunday School is sponsored by the Exeter United Church of Christ and the Exeter United Methodist Church. 

Exeter Cub Scouts Pack 218 learned from the Cordova Boy Scout Troop 359 how to retire the flag. The boys met in Exeter at home of Ken and Lyn Strate and first learned about fire.  The boy scout troop members took one or two of the cub scouts and demonstrated fire building with several different methods. They then gave the cub scouts the opportunity to build their own fires. While the fires were not lit that night, the cub scouts learned about many different methods of building a fire.
