POW/MIA
Recognition Day |
POW/MIA
Recognition Day honors the commitments and the sacrifices made by our nation's
prisoners of war and those who are still missing in action. During the month of September, the Collinsville Library will feature a POW/MIA Remembrance Day display provided by the local Veterans of Foreign Wars of the United States, Post 3077 and it's Ladies Auxiliary. The Library is located at 1223 Main and the hours are noon to 8 p.m. Monday through Thursday, noon to 5 p.m. on Friday and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturdays. The display case is located on the lower level of the library (elevator accessible). In addition to the POW/MIA memorabilia, pictures of Collinsville veterans from WWII, Korea and Vietnam who were killed in action have been included in the display. We hope all will find time to stop by the library to reflect on the memorabilia. Cherryl

Moving
Day |

| That's a two-story house moving along east Broadway Wednesday morning (Aug. 26th). I'm not sure where it came from nor where it ended up. The Collinsville Police provided traffic control as the unexpected arrival it made it's way through town. This view is looking east from 11th & Broadway. -- Ted |
