Coach Carrillo Discusses Win
Coach Carrillo on Lady Cats 4-0 Win Over Greenville
Needless to say, Lady Cats Softball Coach David Carroll was very pleased with his freshman pitcher Addison Caddell who threw a 2-hit shutout and struck out 12 in a 4-0 win over Greenville at Lady Cat Park Thursday afternoon (March 21). Coach Carrillo also gave credit to Assistant Coach Bailey Dorner who called the pitches in the game. Coach Carrillo said Caddell has a really good mound presence that is hard to get from a freshman. He said the Lady Cats struggled some on offense. Coach Carrillo said Greenville pitcher Katie Shaw always pitches well at Lady Cat Park. He said the Lady Cats can hit the ball harder than they did Thursday. Coach Carrillo said despite the struggles, the Lady Cats got the job done. They had 4 runs and 8 hits. Brinklee Drive hit a home run. Coach Carrillo said he was proud of Driver because she wasn’t feeling well. He said he offered to put someone else in for her but she said she wanted to play. She ended up with two hits. The Lady Cats got two big insurance runs in the fifth inning. Coach Carrillo that made him breathe easier. He said at 2-0 anything can happened adding he felt more comfortable at 4-0, especially with the way Caddell was pitching. Obviously he likes the 2-0 start for the Lady Cats. Coach Carrillo said he told his team opponents will be coming after them as defending district champions. The next two Lady Cats games are on the road: at Lindale Tuesday and at Mount Pleasant next Friday.

Proposed C.A.R.E. Center Visionaries Speak Out on World Downs Syndrome Day
and invite all interested persons to a Vision Meeting at Sulphur Springs City Hall on Monday March 25, 2019 starting at 5:30pm where their vision for a C.A.R.E. Center will be revealed.
Rene Aguilar and Clay Pirtle each came to be caretakers of special needs family members through different paths. Clay and his wife were informed that their unborn child was Downs Syndrome-affected, and elected to give birth to and raise their child. Emma is now 3 years old, and Clay is her full-time caregiver. Rene became the daily caregiver of her niece Kandi Redding about 15 years ago, and “Chickie”, as Kandie is known by her friends, is now almost 40 years old and affected by numerous disabilities. Both Rene and Clay are caregivers out of love, and because there are insufficient resources for their special-needs loved ones in Hopkins County and in the immediate. According to both Clay and Rene, their two examples alone demonstrate the wide range of age, diagnosis and level of disability that exist in the special needs/disability communities in rural towns, and the lack of proper resources for the families of these individuals who reside there.
A benefit fundraiser for the proposed C.A.R.E. Center is planned on April 6 at Backstory Brewery from 6-10pm. There will be food, a concert, a Spring Style Show and an Art Auction featuring works by local disabled student and adult artists. Moneys brought in by this fundraiser and future ones will go toward plans for the proposed C.A.R.E. Center, a facility which will be dedicated to providing innovative, inclusive programs and community partnerships, to serve individuals with any level of disability across the spectrum of human needs. To find out more about this vision, please attend the Vision Meeting on Monday March 25 at 5:30pm at Sulphur Springs City Hall, or go to C.A.R.E. Center on facebook. Or you may call Rene at 903-348-1022 or Clay at 903-243-1614, or write to Vision, P.O. Box 2116, Sulphur Springs, Texas 75482.
Cumby Boil Water Notice Rescinded
Water service is back to normal in Cumby after the city received notification from the state TCEQ that the boiling requirement has been lifted. Customers no longer need to boil their water before consumption, as was required 10 days ago, due to low water pressure.
Boil Water Notice Rescinded
March 21, 2019
On March 12, 2019, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality required the City of Cumby water system, PWS 1120001 public water system, to issue a Boil Water Notice to inform customers, individuals, or employees that due to conditions which occurred recently in the public water system, the water from this public water system was required to be boiled prior to use for drinking water or human consumption purposes.
The public water system has taken the necessary corrective actions to restore the quality of the water distributed by this public water system used for drinking water or human consumption purposes and has provided TCEQ with laboratory test results that indicate that the water no longer requires boiling prior to use as of March 21, 2019.
