Letter to the Editor: Bro. Fred Morris
From the Oct 29, 2024 e-EditionDear Editor,
McKenzie needs The McKenzie Banner because of its experience of more than a century of honestly and effectively publishing the news and events of interest to its readers.
Our city council needs members with experience and knowledge of city and state government operations also.
Her present job with the State of Tennessee positions her to be a tremendous help in learning about and acquiring helpful and beneficial programs for McKenzie.
Candidate Jill Holland has that experience and knowledge along with a proven record of leadership. We need to elect her to our council where she will make the decisions that benefit all of our citizens.
Jill is a native of McKenzie and demonstrates an immense love for our town.
I am voting for Jill Holland and encourage you to also.
Fred Morris, McKenzie

The Wit and Wisdom of David Johnson: Any Way You Measure it Camping is an Adventure
I could probably write a book solely devoted to my camping adventures and the crazy, wonderful, amazing, unexpected things that happened. I’d grown up camping with my family, but it was something brand-new for my wife. However, she became a devotee even when our two daughters were babies. Tents. Tents that leaked. That’s how we started out. Sleeping bags on the ground. Camping with no electricity, a bathhouse lit by a skylight, and cold showers.
