Lawson City Hall will be closed on Wednesday, November 11 in recognition of Veteran's Day. We will resume normal business hours on Thursday, November 12 at 8:30am.
There was a brief, but beautiful, double rainbow over downtown Lawson today! What a beautiful site! Thank you to City staff Rhonda and Charla for capturing this fleeting moment!

November is a month to celebrate gratitude. It's also a month to encourage shopping local for the holidays. We would like to invite any local business to send us their holiday special, and we will share it here.
If you would like to participate in this FREE campaign, we are asking that you share a special discount or offer that you would be willing to provide to your customers between now and Christmas. We will help advertise that special for you to help drive traffic to your business. Together, this promotion can help boost business.
The offer can be as simple as "Mention 'Lawson is Awesome' to receive 10% off your purchase" or "Come in for a free quote and receive XYZ" or "Free gift with every purchase over $50." The offer is completely up to you.
To help us put together this promotion, please PM us your logo, any photos you would like to include, and what your promotion will be. We are limiting this to one discount/offer per business and to Lawson-area businesses only. If your business is inside City limits, you must have an active business license on file to be included.
Let me know if you have any questions! Let's continue promoting Lawson and how awesome we are! #lawsonisawesome
Heads up! Pitch is moved due to the election.
Happy Halloween! We hope everyone has a wonderful and safe holiday. Please watch out for kids in the streets. 🎃
From Missouri American Water: "On Monday, 10/26, at 3:30 pm we will be shutting down the main on Moss St., from Salem Rd to S Raum Rd. We will be installing a valve on each side of the railroad tracks. Once the valves are in and restrained, we will turn the water back on. We plan to complete this work by 8pm Monday night. Please keep in mind that unforeseen circumstances could arise extending the time of the shutdown. Should that happen, I will notify you as soon as possible. We are conducting this shut down later in the day to accommodate the school and prevent children from being sent home. This is being done to help facilitate replacement of the main under the railroad tracks. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to Missouri American Water."
Hope everyone is having a great summer and is enjoying preparing for school to start again. A couple of updates for the pool's operations as we finish out this pool season soon:
1. As of TODAY at 3pm, we are going to start selling all of our concessions at a significantly lower price to try and get rid of inventory before Labor Day! Make sure to grab some snacks at low prices next time you're here.
2. We will be open everyday until school starts on the 19th like normal, and then after that, we will only be open the 23rd, 24th, 30th, 31st of August, and Labor Day (September 1st).
3. On Labor Day, our hours will be from 12pm-6pm. Amenities will be limited that day as we will be preparing to close for the winter.
Thanks everyone, and hope you see you at the pool as we get ready to wrap up the 2025 season!
