A town hall meeting to dicuss 911 funding options is still set for 5 p.m. Thursday, April 27, despite confusion  whether the meeting had been cancelled.

Judge-Executive Steve Wood said April 25 that the meeting to discuss potentially implementing a countywide unit service fee as a funding mechanism for the 911-dispatch service had been cancelled.

Wood said he spoke with the other board members, which includes mayors from the major cities in Grant County, and the majority consensus was to call the meeting off.

The Demons went to Verona on April 19 looking to end a three-game losing streak, but went home with a 12-2 defeat by the hands of Walton Verona.

After a 30-minute rain delay, Walton lit up the scoreboard early and often, taking advantage of three walks and an error by scoring three runs in the bottom of the first.

Williamstown responded with a leadoff hit by Isaac Borher and back-to-back walks by Chris Parsons and Chase Turner to load the bases with one out and Caleb Thompson single scored Borher and Parsons.
