Wild time in Atlanta

Good Monday morning from Marion, Ky.

This week we're working on a variety of news story for the printed edition of The Crittenden Press. One interesting piece will be our interviews with UK basketball fans who weathered the tornado last weekend at the Georgia Dome. The SEC Tournament is always well attended by local fans. We've caught up with Richard Cruce, Todd Riley and Ronnie Beavers, just a few who were at the tournament when it was halted due to a tornado. We'll have their photos and comments in this week's Press.

The NCAA Basketball Tournament starts this week. If you're interested, there is a good bracket and game at Yahoo Sports.

Also, this is meetings week. Marion City Council meets tonight at 6 p.m., Crittenden County Fiscal Court meets Tuesday morning at 9 a.m., and Crittenden County School Board meets at 6 p.m. Tuesday night. Additionally, Crittenden Health Systems is having its annual meeting at 6 p.m., Tuesday night at Fohs Hall. The Press will bring you first-hand coverage of all of these meetings.
