There is talk around town about starting a community theater group which will perform a wide variety of material for the public once, or a couple of times a year. Many of the group's details have not yet been worked out, but interest is growing, and as the word gets around, more people are signing up to help make the community theater happen.

The Cheyenne Co Community Theater Group is currently trying to find the people who might be interested in helping in any aspect of the production. If your interests are in acting, or production, administration, or set design, we want to hear from you. We need people who want to see community theater become a part of our culture here in Northwest Kansas, and who will have a lot of fun doing it.

No schedule has been set for the beginning of the first production, it is still under discussion, even the first play has not yet been decided on, although a few initial plays have been discussed.

The creation of a Cheyenne Co Community Theater Group has the potential to give another cultural outlet to the citizens of this area, whether through acting, producing, or taking the family out for a night at the theater. We need you to make it happen, so if you have any interest, let us know. Since no official channels of communication have been set up, you can contact Jason at admin@mylocal.life with your questions, or your interest in participating. And even if you don't want to participate in the production, your attendance at the play would be greatly appreciated.

My Local Life will bring you more details as they are figured out.

Amendments to the Kansas amusement ride act which could affect carnival rides at the fair.
House Bill 2389 is scheduled to be heard, I think on Thursday and Friday in Topeka. This may or may not affect the carnival rides at the fair, but looks like it may. I would suggest people contact Representative Adam Smith and maybe e-mail any concerns, so this doesn't have a negative affect on the community.

After seeing the 4-28-17 video of the object moving across the moon, @ http://www.latest-ufo-sightings.net/2017/04/ufo-caught-moving-across-moon-baffles-viewers.html it reminded me of a similar video I had shot on 10-22-14 north of St. Francis, KS at sunset. If it wasn’t for that post I wouldn’t have posted this—however both videos to me look as if they are related somehow???

It was worth a post

WHAT ARE COVER CROPS?
Written by Fred Wedel, Retired NRCS District Conservationist

What are cover crops? Cover crops are grown for the protection and enrichment of the soil. In Agriculture, cover crops are used to cover and protect the soil rather than to be harvested.

Cover crops are used to manage cropland and reduce soil erosion, improve soil fertility, improve soil quality, improve water storage, reduce pressure from weeds, pests and diseases, and improve biodiversity and wildlife in an agroecosystem.

Proper fence is needed for grazing livestock in a rotational grazing system. As mentioned before, a rest-rotation grazing system is essential for properly managing grazing systems in the western Kansas area of short grass and mid-grass prairie.

Many perimeter fences are 3 or 4 strands of barbed wire. Interior cross-fences are usually a single smooth wire. The interior fe
