Clinton County Tea Party Patriots
We enthusiastically support Rhonda Dedyne and Bill Tennant for another term on the school board.
Bill has served since 2004, and Rhonda since 2005, both devoting many hours to helping this district be the best it can be, despite the recent economic downturn.
Families considering moving to a community look hard at the quality of the school system, and St. Johns Public Schools stand at the top.
Rhonda and Bill have each devoted much of their lives to championing kids, families and the community. Bill was a highly-regarded orchestra teacher for over 30 years, he spear-headed the fund-raising for the Performance Shell in the city park, and has voluntarily coordinated the free concert series for many summers. Rhonda has voluntarily used her writing talents for years to highlight the special people and events of the community.
Please join us in voting for Rhonda and Bill.
Gary and Jenny McCampbell

Does anyone know the exact date in 1975 that the Steel Hotel burned?
Thank you,
Denise Starck
[Editor’s note: The 88-year-old Steel Hotel burned on Good Friday night March 28, 1975. Arson was suspected.]
