Three for three push mowers dead
By ALLAN TINKER
Push mowers were lead items on the cemetery report for the McClusky Park Board from Tammy Nordquist on July 16. The Pulsar, the new one, worked for three months and quit. Another distributed out of Canada and made in Taiwan (known as the one with wobble wheels), also quit. Nordquist tried to “borrow back” the one given to Tyler Krueger for work in the park, only that one didn’t run either. She is looking into the items involved in repairs or replacement push mower. Tree trimming and cemetery work is on two different
time cards, as they are paid from two sources. “A good tree fell in the past week’s high winds and they are taking the rest of it down,” Nordquist said. Checks ($1,500 and $520)
from the gaming machines last earnings at the former Union Café and Bar were given to the McClusky Cemetery and Kathy Davis Memorial Swimming Pool by owners of the café, Sherry Korus and Vonnie Erdmann. Another private donation was received as well. The A and G Trucking price quote for cemetery gravel for the roadwork was a “lot less than estimate,” said Kristee Tanner. She said that Elmer Laib will “even out the roads” when it is delivered. A motion passed to order the gravel and for Laib to do the scraping. Larry Gessner was not present due to illness but participated in the meeting by telephone.
