Dee Nancy award2
Dee & Nancy’s Choice – Rose & Gary Stienblock, they have been to 9 of our car shows!

We had a GREAT turnout for the 10th annual Last Hot Sunday in July car show! 228 classic, new and “works-in-progress” cars lined the streets for the picture-perfect day in Louisville. The DJ, Brian Finch from Finch on the Run kept the crowd entertained with a wide variety of music – he makes the show so special every year! We would like to thank all of the volunteers who helped with the show this year: LPS National Honor Society; John, Sean and Rafael from Ash Grove; Kevin from Mill Creek Auto; Home State Bank; all the miscellaneous volunteers too numerous to mention; and especially Trevor Fiala for his willingness to shadow us this year and officially “take over” next year. We are comforted in knowing we are placing our “baby” in good hands!!

Thanks also to the Louisville residents and out-of-town visitors for supporting this B.U.I.L.D. event! And put it on your calendar for next year – it’s always the Last Hot Sunday in July!

Thanks again,
Dee & Nancy

Celebrating the Dynamic Duo

Last Sunday saw the tremendous success of the 10th Annual "Last Hot Sunday in July". This event was originally conceived by BUILD member Steve Sherman and owner of the Louisville Art Gallery. The success of this annual event has been amazing and Louisville took it's place as one of the Traditional Summer Car Show destinations. The single most valuable commodity in a town the size of Louisville is volunteer energy, and participation.

All good things we enjoy depend on this valuable commodity and with that in mind we celebrate the "retirement" of the "Dynamic Duo" of Dee Arias and Nancy McManis. Pretty much every single Community Event in the last 15 years has been managed, supported, coached, guided, organized by this amazing team and LHSIJuly is only one example.

The retiring of this energetic pair should send a chill down your neck and create an immediate call to action. If you are one of those folks that enjoys the life that Louisville Offers with it's rich compliment of events and programs, but you never contribute your time and energy - it is probably time to call Terri Scholting at BUILD at 402-234-2504 and ask what you can do. Speaking of stepping forward to contribute: Join us and Congratulate Trevor Fiala as the new head master of the Last Hot Sunday in July annual event!

The American Red Cross calls on eligible donors with all blood types to help maintain a sufficient blood supply this summer

OMAHA, Neb. (July 15, 2014) — The American Red Cross encourages all eligible blood donors to make an appointment to donate blood soon to help prevent a shortage.

During the summer months, on average, about two fewer donors give blood at each Red Cross blood drive than what is needed to meet the needs of patients. Vacations and summer activities are among the reasons regular donors may not find the time to give. But, patients don’t get a vacation from needing blood – the need is constant.

As a national network, the Red Cross has a unique responsibility to help ensure blood is available for patients whenever and wherever it is needed. By donating blood or platelets through the Red Cross, donors may be helping patients in their community or patients across the nation.

Red blood cells have a shelf life of only 42 days and platelets just five days, so they must constantly be replenished.

To learn more and make an appointment to donate blood, visit redcrossblood.org or call 1-800-RED CROSS.

Upcoming blood donation opportunities:

Cass County
Aug. 9 from 9 a.m.- 3 p.m. at Louisville High School, 202 W. Third St. in Louisville
Aug. 10 from noon to 4:15 p.m. at First Baptist Church, 16220 Highway 75 in Plattsmouth
Aug. 11 from 1 - 7 p.m. at Town Hall, 623 House St. in Avoca

Beginning with the Wed 5/21/2014 Newsletter all of the Communities will be able to post, buy, sell ads for general merchandise such as mowers, baby cribs, cars, computers and Real Estate.
We especially hope that the classified ads will be used to post Jobs, look for positions, and post special events, birthdays, church events and Garage Sales.

Certainly there are lots of places on the Internet to post ads, but I know that some folks are uncomfortable with using EBay or Craigs List - this is just your neighbors and should be a bit less scary.

Step 1: you do need to have an account, and an email address to manage your ads. You will be notified to renew your ad, you can change info, pricing, and pics as long as you have this account.

Step 2: create an ad, indicate if it is Elmwood, Eagle, Louisville and Alvo and post it

Step 3: wait for approval. We will approve ads as close to immediately as possible. We need to take a quick peek and make sure that it is a real ad, and if anything needs fixing we will fix it.

Step 4: post it to Facebook if you like!

Ads will now show everywhere, regardless if it was posted in Elmwood or Alvo. Our number one request was to post once, and make it visible everywhere. Ads will also be Goggle/Twitter searchable as well as location, travel directions searchable.

So, get cracking! Create that account, and post everything in your garage and basement!

If you need some assistance TEXT us at 4029680821
