Norwood Farmers Day - 2009



    Many thanks are extended to the dedicated Farmers Day Committee:  Ronnie Atchison, Mary Ann Mason, Tim & Annette Bruffett, Cindy Sullivan, Elaina Prewett, Tiffanie Holloway and Susie Dodds.  Without their planning, persistence and hard work to put it all together there would be no Norwood Farmers Day.  If you see them, please take the time to let them know how much you appreciate their efforts and ask how you can help make it better next year. Thanks are also sent to the many unnamed volunteers who helped on the event.
    Thanks are also extended to the City of Norwood for their assistance in this annual event.

May 8, 2009 Storm hits Norwood Post Office



    The storm that hit the Ozarks on the morning of May 8, 2009 took may trees and power poles down.  Power outages were rampant across the Ozarks and Norwood was well hit..  Several trees landed in peoples homes and across the roads making travel difficult..  The above photo is the roof of the Norwood Post Office laying upside down and scattered across several power lines.  Luckily no one was injured.  Power failed just before 10:00 a. m. for most of the area and was not expected to be restored to all until at least sometime on the 9th.
    If you have photos of the storm damage that you wish to share with us please contact the blogmaster by keaving a comment.
