• Spotlight on Service: O'Fallon museum honors veterans, preserves stories of service and sacrifice (ksdk.com) — A veterans museum right in O'Fallon is preserving the stories and sacrifices of more than 600 service members, including local heroes like Col. Stephen Scott. Housed in 2,700 square feet of exhibits, it offers families and visitors a powerful place to learn, remember, and connect across generations through personal artifacts and moving tributes. 
• Hemp THC businesses brace for ban in November; drinks get 1 month of relief (newsfromthestates.com) — Missouri's new law will soon push intoxicating hemp products into the regulated marijuana system, and O'Fallon state Rep. Dave Hinman is leading the charge on future cannabis legislation. Patients, doctors, and businesses are bracing for November's restrictions, which could limit access to low-dose therapeutic products while shifting more sales into licensed dispensaries.
