Good morning, Cape Girardeau. Here's your local news at a glance for Saturday, the 21st of June.
CULTURE NEWS
- ➤ A team of paranormal investigators led by Scott Poole is renovating an old funeral home at the intersection of Middle & Bellview to serve as the new American Ghost Project headquarters — the space will have a commercial kitchen and a social area for coffee and creative ideas. The owner contacted Poole after nearly 20 years of vacancy to clear the building’s spirits — new tenants with similar experiences have already signed up. KFVS12
ENVIRONMENT NEWS
- ➤ The Missouri Department of Conservation’s George O. White Tree Nursery is asking local citizens for mature seeds from trees such as aromatic sumac, serviceberry, black cherry and white oak to make up for a shortage of seed collectors.
