With Sincere Thanks

The family of the late Bryan David Reckrodt wish to express their heartfelt thanks and appreciation to the emergency first responders, law enforcement officials, friends, and neighbors, too many to mention. We as a family know that everybody that knew Bryan mourns with us. He had so many friends in the community and touched many lives. Thank you for the outpouring of prayers, love and support they have been a source of comfort. To the Playle & Collins Family Funeral Home staff that showed such concern for Brenda and our family, thank you. With love from the family of Bryan David Reckrodt an example of information tracked during the 2022 Missouri Day Festival, which included towns from where visitors came, how many visits to the event (and in Trenton) that were made during the three-day time frame, where the visitors shopped, where they ate, etc.

Sharp also gave a recap of the Great Northwest Missouri Day at the Capitol event held recently in Jefferson City. Attendees were able to meet with legislators and state department representatives to discuss needs and concerns in Northwest Missouri.

During the business meeting, the club voted to make a $100 donation to the 2023 local fireworks program.

The Feb. 16 program will be presented by Crowder State Park Superintendent Anna Persell, who will present an update on park activities as well tell about a special upcoming event being held at the park later this year.
