The Town Council met Tuesday afternoon at 2:00 to select from among themselves who would be the president, and who would be the vice-president of the Council, since the resignation last week of Mayor Murry Moore and Council President, Robert "Skip" Reisser left the town without someone to conduct the Council business.

Karen Matteson will soon walk out of the Cascade School library for the last time, closing out 36 years as a school employee. She and her husband first moved to Cascade in 1987.

She worked in the elementary school for 25 years before becoming the K-12 librarian. "The best part about working in a K-12 school has been watching the students grow...

But blow the horn they did, and just like that, the Railroad Park came alive with screaming,...

We can imagine some things but we’d be wrong about most things. Something we didn’t know just a few years ago was the makeup of other planets and asteroids. Tod...
