What haunts owners of old homes?
Plattsmouth Conservancy to again offer free seminars on restoration of historic homes
They may not manifest right away and the problems that arise vary from hot water or HVAC
systems to siding, windows or a horde of issues that threaten all old home owners, leading
them to wonder, “What have I gotten myself into?”
In Plattsmouth, 50 percent or more of the homes are at least 50 years old, prompting
Plattsmouth Conservancy to put together a series of seminars designed to help with the
choosing, restoring and maintaining an older home, whether the style is mid-century,
Craftsman, bungalow or Victorian.
There will be a series of 4 seminars. The dates are March 11, April 8, May 6 and June 10 at the
Conservancy office, located at 437-1 Main Street. The time is 6:30-8:30 PM. There will be a
drawing for a door prize at each seminar.
The first in the series will be an overview of things to look for and what to do about them. The
next three seminars will delve into specifics associated with the restoration and maintenance of
the older home. At the end of each presentation, there will be a question and answer period.
Mark your calendars and plan to attend.
2014 Spring Class Schedule

Be sure to come early or call ahead so that you can get registered for the program before it begins.
Cass County CASA Volunteers Needed!
We are currently recruiting CASA Volunteers for the upcoming training
session scheduled in April 2014. We only train two classes a year, call and
reserve your spot today?
What does a Court Appointed Special Advocate volunteer do? Each CASA
volunteer is screened, trained and completes 30 hours of pre-service
training. Once trained, CASA volunteers are assigned under the Juvenile
Court jurisdiction to speak on behalf of a child to ensure the needs and
interests of abused and neglected children are being met.
Who are CASA volunteers? Our active volunteers are individuals from our
community who work part-time, full-time or are retired. Volunteers commit
to one year with a child, but seldom leave a case until it has been
terminated.
If I can't be a CASA volunteer, how can I help? In addition to training new
CASA volunteers, we are also in need of administrative services support such
as: filing, data entry and making copies.
Your help directly benefits the Cass County CASA Program. A
donor-supported volunteer organization whose mission is to offer
court-appointed volunteer advocacy to children that are abused, neglected
and often find themselves lost in the court system. Through Cass County
CASA, these children are placed with advocates that speak on their behalf
and know them well enough to make informed recommendations to the judge.

Starting the week of March 31, if you plan to drive on Highway 75 between Union and Nebraska City, you will probably need to add at least a half hour to your trip.
A six-mile stretch of highway south of the Union corner will be shut down until September while crews rebuild the road.
Either plan to detour west on Hwy 34 to Hwy 50, then south to Hwy 2, or go across the Plattsmouth toll bridge to I-29 and down the interstate.
