 TIME
TO FALL BACK
Set your
clocks back one hour on Saturday night |
On
Friday, Logan County Tourism Bureau Director Morgan Gleason welcomed
Cindy Smith to the staff at the LCTB. Smith has been hired to fill
the position of assistant to the director. She comes to the LCTB
with a good deal of administrative experience, good knowledge of
local history and a number of other skills and talents that Gleason
expects will prove to be an asset to the bureau.

Eaton
Plant Manager Erik Olson gets a hardy laugh as he recovers from just
receiving a face full of pie from one of the plant employees. Olson
was among several members of management at the plant who recently
agreed to take a pie in the face for the American Cancer Society.
Throughout October, Eaton participated in the Pink Challenge,
holding fundraisers to benefit ACS. The money will be presented at a
later date to the Friends and Family Relay Team. The funds will then
be handed off to the Relay for Life of Logan County and the American
Cancer Society. The money will be earmarked for breast cancer
awareness and support in Logan County, so the funds raised will stay
local.
