'The kid at heart'

Jacob Wiegand
Thursday, September 26, 2019

Jody Burton, originally of Kelso, Missouri, and now Scott City, worked with some of his radio-controlled cars Thursday, Sept. 26, 2019, in Scott City. “They are a kid at heart,” 50-year-old Burton said of those in the RC community. “You wouldn’t believe some of the people that’s into it that you wouldn’t even think. You know. We’re talking doctors, lawyers … the kid at heart.”
