Summer Fan Drive for Sr. Citizens Gets Started Early…Needs Your Help!

Sulphur Springs Corvette Club members helped gather fans for the 2017 Summer Fan Drive. Members are already at work to meet the 2018 goal. Will you join them?
Karon Weatherman, Director of the Sulphur Springs Senior Citizen’s Center, e-mailed: “It is starting to really heat up outside and I have had a few calls from Seniors who need a fan to help keep them cool this Summer. I am starting the Summer Fan Drive on June 11th and will continue it until June 22nd. If you would like to Donate a NEW Box Fan or a NEW Oscillating Fan to the Seniors in Hopkins County just bring them in to the Sulphur Springs Senior Citizens Center located at 150 Martin Luther King Blvd.
I would like to get at least 100 Fans to donate this year. If you don’t want to go shop for a Fan and would just like to donate some cash then we can go purchase the fans for you. Some of the retailers will give us a break in the cost of the fans if we buy a lot of them at one time. I will be Partnering Up with the Corvette Club for the 3rd time. They are a wonderful group of people who care about their Community and the People who live in it.”
Atmos Plans Routine Pipeline Maintenance
COMO, Texas (May 10, 2018) – Atmos Energy crews and contractors will oversee a controlled release of natural gas on May 14, 2018, between 7 a.m. and noon. Work will occur in the area of Crush Junction on Hopkins Co Road 2319 and in the area of CR 2329 southwest of the Town of Como. Contractors will be working on a section of natural gas pipeline in the area as part of normal, routine maintenance.
The controlled release of natural gas from the pipeline allows crews to work on the pipeline safely. People in the area may smell natural gas and hear moderate noise during the process. Atmos Energy employees will be on-site to monitor the process as natural gas is vented into the atmosphere.
Atmos Energy customers will not be affected while the maintenance work is being performed. Como city officials, police department, fire department and Hopkins County 911 operators were advised of the controlled release prior to work beginning on May 14, 2018.

Wildcats Improved in 7-on-7 Play Against Gilmer Tuesday
The Wildcats’ 7 on 7 football team opened their season Tuesday evening (May 8) against Gilmer in the Multipurpose Building. Wildcats Football Offensive Coordinator Matt Young said more than 100 Wildcats who will be seventh graders, eighth graders, JV players and Varsity members got to throw and catch for two hours.
Coach Young noted that the Buckeyes are talented with tall and long receivers who expose your weaknesses. Gilmer’s varsity looked like they had been practicing for several months as they scored the first five times they had the football in a six touchdowns to two win. Wildcats defensive back Andy Eddins broke the Gilmer string of scores with an interception.
On the Wildcats very first offensive play, senior to be quarterback D’Corian Young threw a long bomb that was caught perfectly by receiver Day Day Dugan. Later Young threw another touchdown. The Wildcats used four different quarterbacks: Young, Aidan Walker, Noe Ponce and Kaden Wallace. Gilmer also took a second match up with the varsity, 4-2. Young had a couple more TD passes including one to Landry Tyson. This game was tied 2 touchdowns apiece before Gilmer scored the last two to come out on top.
Coach Young said he spent most of his time watching seventh and eighth graders to be since they did not get videotaped. He has tape of varsity and JV action to evaluate. Based on what he saw and heard about Tuesday, Coach Young said D’Corian Young threw some accurate balls and he said although the catching is not where it needs to be, he said the receiving improved as the evening went along.
Coach Young said Commerce and Emory Rains would be bringing teams to town to play 7 on 7 next Tuesday.
