Paranormal Activity Group at Guthrie Center City Council Meeting

News

September 30th, 2011 by admin

Paranormal activity was one of the subjects at the most recent meeting of the Guthrie Center City Council.

The City Council gave approval to the Des Moines Area Paranormal Society to investigate possible paranormal activity at Union Cemetery. Four to six members of the group will conduct a series of tests to collect evidence of possible paranormal activity.

The group made the request to the City Council because in some cases, access is required to a location for a period of up to six hours during the evening or late night hours.

The group selected Union Cemetery because of reports of events that may or may not have occurred at the cemetery.

Also at the meeting, the City Council received bids from four engineering firms regarding construction projects around town. Some of the projects include the master downtown revitalization plan and projects for lights and sidewalks in downtown.

The Council did not take action on any of the bids because two Council members were not present at the meeting.

Coach Chris Jahnke Comments: After a rocky start to our night we finally put things together in game three. Although we came away with a loss tonight the progress made with our new found team was amazing. This team made great strides tonight and I believe they got a taste of what is yet to come. It is my hope that the progress we made with our blocking and serve receive portions of our game tonight will be springboards to bigger and better things. I thought Sam Petersen played her best match of the season tonight. We are going to count on her for big things yet this season. I also thought the play of our back row specialists was much improved and allowed us to do some of the things we wanted to.  We have a tough stretch of matches the next few weeks and we will strive for daily improvement.

Atlantic Medical Center Addition Opens

News

September 30th, 2011 by admin

The new addition to the Atlantic Medical Center opened on Wednesday and CCMH says it served its first patient in the new addition that day.

The addition expands Suite C at the medical center, creating a patient care area to be used primarily for obstetrics and gynecology services provided by Dr. James Brown.

The addition includes two patient exam rooms, one minor procedure room, one office and some storage space, bringing the total number of patient exam rooms in Suite C to eight. Suite C is also the area of AMC that is used for the evening clinic hours from 5 – 7 pm. Patients with evening appointments will come in directly through the new Suite C entrance.

Patients will drive past the north entrance, around the corner to the back of the building, and the Suite C entrance is on the right.

Assistant Administrator for Physician Clinics Sue Marsh says the addition will enhance the care provided by Dr. Brown and also others at the medical center by making more space available for patient care

The AMC addition is the first step to be completed in the Cass County Health System’s current construction and renovation project.
