Question of the week
News this week showed snowpack in the Yampa River basin has reached 94 percent of median for the date. Do you think Moffat County is out of the woods as far as drought concerns?

You can not with hold a persons diploma for celebrating the one of the greatest time of their lives. When I graduated from high school my class did the whole beach ball and bubbles. We were told not to and we still did. It's kind of a last minute senior prank along with the excitement of being out of high school. Also they are sitting there through hours of people talking. In all they are ferric in touch with their kid side. Congrats class of 2012.

Wow, a plethora of misspellings in these comments. Great to know correct spelling is not a requirement to graduate in Moffat County. But hey, let them graduate and of course a rowdy celebration is always in order even if you can’t use punctuation properly.
