The song that fits this Monday Mailbag perfectly...
Welcome to the beautiful town where I grew up:
Location: Salem, MO
Population: 4,854
Entertainment: 100 Acre Wood Rally, Current River, Montauk State Park, Salem City Park, Salem Senior High sports, Salem Bowling Center
Home to: Southwest Baptist University Salem Center, Montauk State Park, Ozark National Scenic Riverway, US Foodservice Distribution Center
Random Facts: The Battle of Salem was fought December 3, 1861, where 6 Yankee and 16 Confederate soldiers were killed; the Confederates retaliated by burning the county courthouse
It may be a small town, but it was a fun place to grow up! There wasn't a lot of things to do, so you had to make up your own entertainment. From Friday night football games to floating the river, I'll never forget this place!
