It seems that Exeter weather is either flood or
drought this year. Wednesday evening thunderstorms cancelled baseball
games and brought between 3 1/2 to 5 inches of rain to the area.
Exeter Public Library has begun their summer
reading program “Dream Big Read.” The program meets on Fridays during
June for Kindergarten through third graders. There was a special
preschool program on Friday, June 15th. Participants have been reading books,
doing crafts and playing games at each session. At the end of the meeting
they can check out books and movies.
Exeter Pack 218 scouts were guests of the
Advanced Bio Energy Ethanol Plant on Wednesday morning. Plant Maintenance
Supervisor Dan Mainwaring showed the scouts the entire cabinet of plans that
were used to build the plant and shared with them some plans for a tank that was
added recently. After showing them the plans Mainwaring showed the boys
the tank that was built and how the tank matched up to the plans explaining the
importance of plans and following the designers specifications.
Mainwaring also talked about different types of engineers and their different
roles in building our country. The Webelos scouts in the pack were
working on their Engineering pin.
Scouts attending were Clint Oldehoeft, Blake
Meyer, Joey Bartu, Mikey Bartu, Josh Meyer, Jackson Beethe and Ben Bartu.
Area residents will have the chance to find out
whether their children are as safe as possible in their child safety seats
during an upcoming FREE check-up event.
This event is a FREE opportunity to have
trained technicians determine if a child is riding as safely as possible or if
changes in positioning or seat use could help them to be safer. Those who are
planning to have seats checked are asked to allow about 30 minutes per child
safety seat.
