We have a lot of
political stuff today… transparency, DOMA, government shutdown, slots
in Ohio and a reasonable look at our state’s union debate. But what’s
important is what is happening right here in Darke County. We have
young people who are taking an active role in leadership, community and
character building that will benefit us – and them – as they prepare
for the challenges of the future. One of those groups is the GHS Key
Club and its new Division 3 Lt. Governor. Check it out… oh, and by the
way, how about an old-fashioned pancake breakfast? Join us. News:
Kasich: Slots decision will take time, and Lawmakers won’t miss a
paycheck. Blogs: Shutdown: Does GOP have the edge this time?
