From the Friends of the Osage City Public Library:
Do you give gift certificates or gift cards for gifts? Would you like to help the Friends of the Osage City Public Library with a fundraiser to help fund the 2024 Summer Library Program? The Friends have been selling gift cards to local businesses for over 10 years. You get the face value of the cards and the businesses give the Friends a percentage of what is sold. The gift cards are the same that you would purchase at the stores, you just don't have to drive all over getting them. It's a win-win for everyone. Stop by the library today and pick up the order form. Orders are due Dec. 2, 2023. The Friends accept cash, check and credit cards.

Greetings,
I would like to thank those that assisted with the 2023 Fall Festival Event. I felt that the community attendance and participation was exceptional considering the cold, windy weather and is the beginning of a growing event for the Chamber.
Thank you for your support and participation.

What is up with the vehicle department in Lyndon? People over 62 can not renew their driver's license online and most of the age group is living on Social Security and we have to drive to Topeka to get are license renewed? Is this what our taxes go for service in our county?

Why are we being taxed if we have no road repair (which I understand that it is not the time of year to fix a road but it has never been fixed) a high water bill which includes repair and updates, no gas service, no fire plug, high speed internet which is also paid for by the consumer and mail service that needs to be looked at closely? Take a good look at 205th street entrance and the side of the road both are badly in need of fixing. We have one way in and one way out. We the people have to pay for tires that get ruined, security lights and animal control which I have asked for twice and with no response.
