Tripp

In the last couple of weeks we have had several families inquiring about moving to Tripp. Our smaller grade school classes are larger than the ones moving through high school. That is a positive change ! People are finding out it is cheaper to live in a little town than the big city and worth the short drive if workig out of town. Small communities have a better social awareness and the kids feel more togetherness than trying to fight your way through a large population and school system. We are all friendly neighbors and welcome any new faces..

When asked for a little brighter and cleaner look to our main street the business owners took it to heart and cleaned or updated their appearance. Windows were cleaned, planters were planted, and just a brighter look to main street happended by just a few taking charge. Thanks to people who care about their town it is amazing how much can be done so quickly.

The Tripp Little League is offering their summer season ball activity again this year. There will be a sign up meeting at the Tripp Emergency Building on May 7th at 7:30. Parents will be asked to pay the insurance fee and to accept the rules of the League at the meeting. Kids of all ages are encouraged to come and play ball. Last year we had a great season and hopefully we will continue in that direction ! Amy Brown and Dee Sandau are the girls coaches, and Tom Heisinger is the boys coach.

Five days a week in Tripp at the Dugout Lounge the seniors ( 60 and over) can get the noon special for $2.50. Many take avantage of this meal not only because of the dollar value but also the chance to go uptown and visit with friends and get out of the house. This Mother’s Day May 11th the Dugout will be open for a noon meal to honor the mother’s in our community. Take advatage of staying near home and using this opportunity to patronize a home town business.
