• Cathy Gottsch, Ray County Museum administrator, discusses what the museum has done during the COVD-19 pandemic and shares her plans for the museum during and after Ray County's reopening.
• Three Ray County school administrators discuss high school graduation plans: Trey Cavanah, superintendent, Hardin-Central C-2 Schools; Scott Archibald, Orrick R-XI School District superintendent; and Justin Remington, soon-to-be Richmond High School principal. Other education-related topics they discuss include tributes to the class of 2020. The segment references a story about Richmond's weekly field lighting tribute to its seniors, published April 25 in the print edition of the Richmond News and its sister newspaper, The Excelsior Springs Standard.
