Hospital Tax Recall Petition turned in with 900 names Vicky Pike, an organizer of the Hospital Tax Recall Petition, submitted the petition signatures to County Court Clerk Sheila Blair today, Tuesday, September 4, 2012, at 12pm noon CT a few hours before the deadline. The petition needs 755 valid names to put the matter to a vote. Pike said the committee had 900 signatures, but their own check reduced that number to 826. According to Clerk Blair, Pike said, the verification process by the County Court Clerk's staff office should take no more than two weeks. If the petition has the necessary valid signatures, the earliest a vote could be taken would be November 2014. 2012-09-04 17:20:18 | Comments | Printable version

Labor Day is birthday day for 13 at Tucker's Station Farms "We are a multi-species family and we all have to get along". - BARBARA ARMITAGE Click on headline for story with photo(s) By Barbara Armitage All of our 4-legged children at Tucker's Station are adopted - that makes it hard to know exactly when everyone's birthday really is. To simplify things all the "kids" share the same birth date - Labor Day. This year the canine kids opted for a traditional hamburger cookout birthday party complete with a dog friendly birthday cake. We learned to keep the party simple after the year the puppies ate the party hats. We - Barbara and Wayne - currently share our home at Tucker's Station with 13 dogs and 4 cats all of which were sadly abandoned on Bull Run Road. We're often asked if the humans, felines and canines ever have problems. Like all families we have our problems but we remind the kids frequently that "we are a multi-species family and we all have to get along". -Barbara Armitage 2012-09-04 16:43:36 | Comments | Printable version
