This is a poem submitted by local resident Timmy Hale
CASTALIA is a small town....Got a few ups and downs....We don't have no bus or train....About that we don't complain....No fancy eating places....We do have a few new faces....Most of us are in bed before 10 at night...And alot of us get up at the beginning of day light....We would truly appreciate.....If outsiders don't come in and discriminate......Don't have a Blvd but got a main street.....Got one gas station that sometimes that is where old timers meet.....We got a awesome little park....And if u are up late at night u can hear the coyotes bark.....We got a store down on the corner of main street called CENTRAL HARDWARE.....Always have what I need and some pretty faces with a smile to share......There is a little post office where most get their mail.....Then there is BRAKE'S AUTO SERVICE that fixed my tires as I ran over a nail....We do got a fire department that is the best.....It's awesome crew separates them from the rest.....Most of us around here try to keep peace......And if u come visit show some respect atleast...We also have a town hall....The secretary stays on the ball.....Guess what I am saying about my little small town.....Be careful because we ain't gonna allow no big city folks come in and put us down.....
