Survival Skills, More Than Just a Grocery Run
Joe Norman
Pawnee Republican
Late spring into early summer in southeast Nebraska brings a certain kind of shift in the air. Once the turkey woods go quiet and the humidity starts to climb, you’ll likely find me parked on a muddy bank with a big ole catfish pole in hand. While I’m sitting there swatting at mosquitoes the size of hummingbirds and keeping a sharp eye out for poison ivy, I often get to thinking about how...

The Summer Bloodsuckers
Joe Norman
Pawnee Republican
If you have stepped foot outside your back door lately, you likely noticed that the air is getting a bit crowded. It seems like overnight, those pesky mosquitoes have decided to move in and treat us like an all-you-can-eat buffet. Down home, we always said a mosquito is just a tiny little thing, but it packs a punch that can ruin a perfectly good evening. Beyond the itching and the red welts...

A Note from the Editor
Dear Subscriber,
I wanted to take a moment to explain the Pawnee Republican News Brief email you may have noticed receiving these past two Monday evenings. The News Brief is our newsletter and is aimed at bringing more attention to articles that may have been missed by our readers.
The newsletter is entirely free to sign up for and no addtional charge will be made to any subscriber in order to receive the newsletter. Readers who are not yet subscribed may also sign up to receive the newsletter. However, the full articles will still be exclusive content for our subscribers.
In a fast paced, globally focused world, it can be very easy to miss what's happening in our own backyards. This is why small town newspapers are so important. We do our very best to serve our communities with a narrow, local focus, bringing you the stories that are closest to home. Our newsletter is just an extension of that focus, bringing your attention to stories you might have missed.
This is a very new project for us and we will be growing and changing the newsletter as we find out what works for our readers. We welcome constructive feedback and ideas for how to make our service better.
In the future, the newsletter may be a place for overflow content- those stories which are timely and important but we simply don't have space for in our printed pages. We may also use it as a place for extra photos from events.
We want to continue to offer our best content to our dear subscribers who fuel our mission here at The Pawnee Republican. Thank you to all of you who do subscribe and support our work! We cannot do it without you and we look forward to serving you all for years to come!
Sincerely,
Reagan Connelly
Pawnee Republican, Editor
