Participate 2012: Martin Bows Out of Congressional Race

Martin to challenge Chris Koster for Missouri Attorney General.

Two days after a Webster Groves doctor made the 2nd Congressional district Republican primary a three candidate race, the contest is back down to two in the running. Thursday morning, St. Louis attorney Ed Martin announced he would drop out of the GOP primary for Congress and instead challenge Chris Koster to become the state's top lawyer. Feeding off of his near-victory against Rep. Russ Carnahan (D-St. Louis) in 2010, Martin had support in his bid to succeed Rep.

The congressional candidate considered a bid for the GOP nomination for Governor.

Bluebird Series Brings Region's Best Disc Golfers to Quail Ridge

Saturday's regional championships will feature the top Frisbee golfers from a summer-long qualifying tour in the first state-wide competition of its kind.

Throughout the summer, disc golfers around St. Louis have been battling amongst each other to be the best in the region. On Saturday, they’ll settle the score. Wentzville’s Quail Ridge Park will be the host of a regional championship for the Bluebird Championship Series, a multi-city disc golf tour created by the Missouri Parks and Recreation Association that began in April.
