Haskins and Staats receive Key to the City
Suzette Lowe

The Ripley City Council was opened in an unusual way, with a story read by Mayor Carolyn Raider. The moral of that story lead into a presentation.
The mayor shared the speech by college baseball coach, John Scolinos, in which he asked a room full of baseball coaches if every home plate measured the same 17 inches. He went on to stress that even if a player has trouble with the size of the plate, the standard never changes, the expectation never is lowered.
Mayor Rader then presented the key to the city Amy Haskins and Wendy Staats from the Jackson County Health Department.
