Hunting does go on Sat. mornings beginning at 7:15.  Mostly in the Fall.  I know because I wake up to it all the time.  I am also in Providence towards the back.  I have been told it is geese hunting.  Anyway, since schools have a "No Tolerance" policy...

There seems to be ALL types of hunting in Illinois, and unless you know what type...

Oh, I'm sorry that you didn't like MY opinion. Oh well...  I guess we do disagree.

I didn't dream up anything.  Think it was a prank.

My opinion is perfectly educated, as am I.  But I see you brought this thread to a new l...

My point is that farming has nothing to do with a bullet being found in our schools.  Hunters are only a portion of people who own guns and that we have no idea if children brought these bullets to school.  Maybe the second bullet was a prank.  But wha...

We do live in a farming community.. there are hunters that live in Providence as well as the out lying areas.. and I do know a few that live in Providence.  My daughter went to CHS and a bullet was found once there and the school was on lock down for t...

Thanks Dodgers!  Yes the banks need a wake up call for sure.  Hopefully one day it will happen!  Also thanks for the well wishes, New Elgin has been quite good to me and I will continue to help as many people as I can!
