Here is an update from the Linn County Journal:

• With Thanksgiving less than a week away, Christmas celebrations are ready to begin. Today from 9 a.m. to noon at the La Cygne Library, 4-H members from across Linn County will be selling homemade goods at a 4-H market.

• Prairie View school district Superintendent Chris Johnson was in shock when she saw a notice in the Paola newspaper that had a mill rate more than 10 mills below the budget approved by the school board. If unchanged, the posted mill levy would have cost the district $3.1 million.

• The STARS Foundation has voted to buy the STARS campus from the Pleasanton school district. However, Fort Scott Community College may have first right of refusal on the property.

• We will have photos from Prairie View musical Give My Regards to Broadway.

• See our homepage for Christmas flyers from around the county over the next three weeks.
