B-2-3 number 23 cassville, missouri 65625-0488 Wednesday, MARCH 20, 2013 Farmers’ Market coming to downtown Cassville Rachael Freeman The Cassville Main Street Association (CMSA) and members of Garden Sass have teamed up together to bring a Farmers’ Market to the square in Cassville on Saturdays. After conducting many focus groups and surveys, the CMSA found that one of the main venues that citizens want to see in downtown Cassville is a Saturday. Mary Cupps, who takes the lead for the CMSA Promotions Committee, stated, “We are thrilled to have this happen. “We are willing to do what we can to make this farmers’ market as successful as possible. Our goal is to make the downtown area vibrate and encourage people to visit the square.” Garden Sass president John Potter expressed his excitement for the opportunity to move to the square. “It will be beneficial for us and help Main Street bring more traffic to the square.” Garden Sass will setup around the square along 7th Street starting Saturday, April 6th, and will be there on Saturdays through November 23rd, weather permitting. Garden Sass will continue their regular hours of operation behind MFA near the city baseball fields on Tuesdays and Fridays from 7:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. starting the first week of May. Members discussed the possibility of forgoing Fridays and just meeting on Tuesdays and Saturdays if they are successful around the square. Cassville Main Street has asked that Garden Sass provide an activity once a month such as face painting, bluegrass music or an opportunity for children to learn about planting a garden. While Garden Sass will be in charge of managing the Farmers’ Market, outside vendors are encouraged to take part. The cost is $5 for the first day and $1 a day after that. CMSA has designated 20 spots for the Farmer’s Market. BC Sheriff’s Department arrest fugitive after day-long manhunt Kathee Baird The almost day long search for a man who stole a Barry County Sheriff’s deputy’s service revolver while he was trying to serve a warrant on March 13th ended about 6 p.m. the same day with the man’s arrest. Chris Andrew Young, 21, of Monett, was wanted because he had violated terms of his release after he was charged with stealing a chain saw from the Monett police department last month. The manhunt for Young, who had a pair of handcuffs dangling from his wrists when he fled, ended when he was apprehended hiding behind a house about four blocks from where the incident began, according to Barry County Sheriff Mick Epperly. Several streets surrounding the apartment Young bolted from were blocked off by the fire department, and some schools in the area were placed on lockdown for a couple of hours. Four people who were inside the apartment were taken into custody, questioned and then released, according to Epperly. Barry County Prosecutor Johnnie Cox charged Young with stealing on March 4 and he was released on his own recognizance (without having to post a bond) and was placed under the supervision of the Southern Missouri Judicial Services. According to the probable cause statement filed against him in the stealing case, he was driving a car in which he had two passengers. The group spotted the chainsaw, circled the block and Young exited the car and put the chainsaw in the back seat, where police found it when they stopped the car. Epperly explained that the police department had been having a spate of stealing issues and started utilizing cameras in an effort to thwart them. On March 8th, the service supervising the terms of Young’s release reported that he had violated those terms, and the deputy whose gun was stolen was attempting to arrest him after a warrant was issued for his arrest. Epperly says Young, who told jailers he was high on meth when the officer attempted to arrest him, had not been reporting to the agency that was supervising his pre-trial release. “Had he just reported he wouldn’t have had a warrant,” said Epperly. One of the other two people in that car, Jeremy Danzer, 23, of Monett, also was charged in connection to the theft of chainsaw. A 27-year-old woman from Pierce City who also was in the car has not been charged. Cox has charged Young with assault of a law enforcement officer, resisting arrest and stealing/theft of a firearm in connection to the March 13th incident. He is being held without bond in the Barry County jail. Officers from the Monett Police Department, Police searching for Cassville Schools vandals Rachael Freeman The Cassville Police Department are currently investigating an act of vandalism to property on Cassville Schools campus last Thursday night, March 14. According to Cassville Police Chief Dana Kammerlohr, the above photo is a security camera photo of the vehicle involved in the vandalism. Cassville School Superintendent Richard Asbill said that the school is working with the Cassville PD to identify the perpetrator. “It appears the vandals drove around campus shooting a pellet/bb gun at various windows causing window breaks and damage,” stated Asbill. The vehicle has been described as a silver Ford Sport Trac with tinted windows. If you have any information concerning the vandalism, please contact the Cassville Police Department at (417)-847-4700. Barry Electric COOP to hold annual members meeting YOUNG Barry County Sheriff’s Department, Lawrence County Sheriff’s Department, Missouri State Highway Patrol, which also aided in an air search, and Missouri Conservation Department assisted in the search for Young. Barry Electric Cooperative will hold its 66th annual membership meeting at the First Baptist Church Family Life Center, located at Fifth and West streets in Cassville, at 1:00 p.m. on Thursday, April 4. Registration will begin at noon and the business session will be called to order at 1:00 p.m. Members are asked to bring the registration card that is printed on the outside cover of the April issue of Rural Missouri.

Cassville’s Radio Shack closing after 14 years Samantha Barberio Jim Craig has been an active member of the community for many years. He was mayor for five years and has been in business around Cassville for 29 years. His business ventures included three franchises over those years, which were Craig’s Home Center, Western Auto Store and Radio Shack. His most recent store is Radio Shack and after 14 years, they are closing the doors to this franchise on Friday, March 29th. Craig stated, “The business has been good to me. If I could do it again, I would. I’m going to miss it and miss all the people. We’re grateful for all our loyal customers over the years.” Many speculations have came up about why Radio Shack is closing, Craig states the reason might be a shift in buying habits. For the remainder of March, Radio Shack will hold closing sale with all items marked at 30 percent off the ticketed price. Pictured above, left to right, are: Craig and Radio Shack employee Doug Landstad.

Well, I know come April 2, 2013, we will have a choice of raise taxes or not to raise taxes here in Barry County. No one likes to have their taxes raised. Food is way too high and gas seems to be going up. My property tax went up in 2012 and my house is older. We just keep paying and paying. Obama care, how will that effect our taxes? No one is creating any jobs in this State as far as I can see. Or it’s being kept a secret. Jobs are gong overseas. What are we doing to our country? I know Barry County is not the richest county. We could combine road districts. That could save money. I also know that we get a lot of tourists come through here in the spring and summer and for our beautiful fall. My question is why it is always the way when a city or state or county needs money the first thing is “let’s raise taxes.” Well, I just wonder why we cannot think of other ways to raise money for our country. Someone said to me that they could try a tourist tax. I would think that might be a road to go down to bring in some extra revenue for our Anna Bell Robbins Anna Bell Robbins, age 84, of Cassville, Missouri, passed away Thursday, March 14, 2013, at Cassville Health Care and Rehab.

If it were a 4% tax on, say, all hotel rooms and cabins in the area. We are talking about 4 cents on every dollar. If the average room cost $60.00 a night, we are talking about $2.40 on every room. So, let’s say we have 200 rooms available that’s equals $480.00 a night, times 7 nights is $3,360.00 and we do this all spring, summer and fall, how much money would that be in income?? It would be about 7 months if we are fortunate and have a good spring thru fall season and that does not include Shell Knob and Monett yet. All of Barry County must be included. My figures come out to be between $75,000.000 to $94,000.00, could be more if we have a good season. That sure would help our Sheriff and deputies. Why is it always about raising the taxes? People plan for vacation well in advance. Do you think 4 cents on a dollar would stop someone from going on there planned vacation? I would hope not. Many places have a tourist tax. Something we may consider. Let the tourist pay the tax. We have a beautiful area for tourists. What we need are the people that want to implement a tourist tax. Something to think about.

Use that tax money to improve on the best investment you have.... your home! #1 417/271-3555 tfc I encourage the voters of Barry County to support the proposed Barry County 1/8cent sales tax increase that is sorely needed for the various services provided by the County to its citizens. Part of the increase will necessarily be used for the needs of law enforcement, which needs I will address. During the last six months of 2012, after the retirement of Circuit Judge Robert Wiley, I had the privilege of performing various duties of that position which required me to preside over various court proceedings in Barry, Lawrence and Stone Counties. These counties make up the 39th Judicial Circuit. During this 6-month period, I noted that Barry County has a full time prosecuting attorney and one half time assistant. Lawrence County has a full time prosecuting attorney, one full time assistant and one half time assistant. Stone County has a full time prosecuting attorney and three full time assistants. Also, due to financial constraints, on most days, Barry County was only able to provide one bailiff for three courtrooms whereas Lawrence and Stone Counties were able to provide one bailiff for each courtroom. In fiscal year 2012, the total criminal case filings for the entire Judicial Circuit were 8,161. Barry County’s filings were 2988-37% of total filings, Lawrence County’s filings were 2790-34% of total filings, and Stone County’s filings were 238329% of total filings. Over the past several years, due to financial constraints, the Barry County Sheriff has had to significantly reduce the number of Sheriff’s deputies. Due to several capital murder cases in the last couple of years, our prosecuting attorney and his staff have been stretched to their limit. Thankfully, we have conscientious civil servants in all of our law enforcement positions but I can assert from personal observation, they all are overworked and are in need of additional manpower to address the needs of our Country. Barry County, unlike the federal government, cannot print money or borrow money from China. Further, unlike the federal government, the County is required to formulate a budget and actually operate the County within the financial constraints of that budget. From personal experience and observation, as a citizen and taxpayer, I receive the most for my tax money at the local level. If we, as citizens of Barry County, ask our county to continue to provide necessary services and to protect our property and us, we must provide the financial wherewithal to do so. I encourage you to vote in favor of the proposed 1/8th sales tax on April 2nd. Carr L.

Andy was born May 19, 1984, in Joplin, the son of Scott and Coleen (Belisle) Tarpy. He was a lifelong area resident and graduated from Neosho High School, class of 2002. During high school, he was active in drama, debate, choraleers, cecilian choir and any other vocal program offered. His love of performing started in 3rd grade when he was given his first solo for the elementary Christmas program. From that point he had a love of performing and received numerous district and state honor choirs which lasted throughout his school career. He was a performer since early childhood so his fascination and eventual love for performing came as no surprise or disappointment as he belonged on stage. He made each role his own and always left the audience laughing. He loved to play his guitar and sing, especially spending time with friends. He was an avid lifelong fan of KU Basketball, Kansas City Chiefs Football and St. Louis Cardinals Baseball. Andy is survived by his mother, Coleen Tarpy of Neosho; brother, David Tarpy and wife, Kristen of Overland Park, Kan.; sister, Meghan Tarpy and fiance Clay Sexson, of Goodman; three nephews, Wyatt and Henry Tarpy and Rilynn Sexson; maternal grandmother, Linda ‘Nana’ Belisle of Neosho; paternal grandmother, Shirley Tarpy of Lawrence, Kan.; numerous aunts, uncles, cousins, countless friends and his beloved cat, Leia. Andy is preceded in death by his father, Scott Tarpy; maternal grandfather, Andy ‘Papa’ Belisle; and paternal grandfather, Sonny Tarpy. The body has been taken for cremation.
