Guest Blog by Carrie Hollenbeck (my wife) - Why is it a Good Friday?
I didn't really understand why we called the day Jesus died on the cross "Good Friday". What was so "good" about it? Growing up, Easter was the "good" day, not only because the Easter bunny came, but it was a day we went to church and were able to yell several times, "Christ is Risen. He has Risen Indeed"!

Happy Independence Day!
As you enjoy this day with family or friends, cookouts, camping, fireworks, parades and the like, please find the time to reflect on the reason we celebrate this day. We are a proud nation, one where we can express our different thoughts and views, one where we can have religious freedom, one where our soldiers continue to fight for the Freedom we enjoy, one where we take a day out of the year to celebrate a birthday, not “just another year”, one birthday that will continue to be another year to celebrate our freedom, one where we can be thankful for the Freedom we enjoy!
Happy Easter Everyone
Happy Easter to all who read the blog; the supporters and the critics alike!
Special Events Committee
Instead of just focusing on the 4th of July with a committee, I think the Cudahy committee’s name and purpose needs to change and evolve to the Special Events Committee.
