Good morning, Cape Girardeau.

The SEMO Redhawks are teaming with Mid-America Transplant to host Donate Life Games this weekend to honor donor heroes and boost organ donation awareness, with the baseball game Friday at 6 p.m. at Capaha Field and the softball game Saturday at 1 p.m. at the Southeast Softball Complex.

Local artists Barb Bailey and Aaron Horrell are inviting Cape Girardeau residents to help paint Blues Highway—a mural celebrating 100 years of Highway 61—with sessions held Tuesday to Saturday from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. at 620 Whitelaw Avenue.

Perry County School District 32 will reassess its long-term facility plans after voters rejected Proposition K.I.D.S. on April 7 — the district still faces challenges from tornado damage to Perryville High School.

New board members will meet next week to gather community input.

Notre Dame Regional High School named its Class of 2026 valedictorian Elena Ripperda and salutatorian Lucy Ripperda based on academic and extracurricular achievements.

Elena will attend Saint Louis University on a pre-med track while Lucy plans to study healthcare management there.

After voters rejected Proposition K.I.D.S on April 7, Perryville students face daily challenges moving among separate campus sites (a tent structure, older facilities, and a career center) due to tornado damage.

School officials plan discussions on next steps as students adapt to the split environment.

SEMPO will host two open houses to gather transit feedback.

The first is from 4 to 6 p.m. April 15 at the Jackson Civic Center and the second from 3 to 5 p.m. April 16 at Shawnee Park Center in Cape Girardeau — residents are invited to attend.

The trial began Tuesday in Cape Girardeau as the Drury family sued River City Centre over planned expansion at West Park Mall.

They allege the expansion violates a longstanding development agreement that limits permitted construction — a dispute now under court review.
