Out and About – Week of August 2nd

Welcome to August. This month is “holiday-free”. The only significant thing about this month is that, for students, it’s the last month of vacation. For families, it’s the last chance to take any type of vacation traveling, and for sun worshipers, it’s really the last chance to go to the beach and expose themselves to those dangerous rays from the …

Out and About – Week of July 26th

We have passed the half-way point of summer vacation for the school students. It won’t be long before the school bell will ring and the children’s dreams of spending days in the classroom will be fulfilled. Mothers will be in a state of depression, because their little ones are away from home for most of the day. They will be …

Nothing planned for Friday evening, July 23? The Three Rivers Art Hop will run from 6 until 9 P.M. in historic downtown Three Rivers. The downtown merchants will have special hours to accommodate anyone who might wish to stop in and browse.

These are just some of the things I enjoy about living in a community like Three Rivers. There’s a lot that can be said about living in …

Out and About – Week of June 28th

This past weekend was most definitely a very busy one. I’m pretty sure that I predicted that in a previous column. Relay for Life, the reception at the Carnegie Center for the Arts, the concert in Lafayette Park, and Covered Bridge Days were just some of the activities that attracted a lot of attention. Kudos to all who participated in …

Out and About – Week of June 21st

Despite the weather cancellation of the parade, this year’s Water Festival went over very successfully. The weather definitely had an effect on the turnout, but as the old saying goes, “Everyone complains about the weather, but no one can do anything about it.” Three Rivers sustained some damage from the storm, yet everyone seemed to be able to participate and …

Out and About – Week of June 7th

I apologize if some of you think I’m preaching to the choir, but from what I’ve seen, I feel it’s important enough to mention at this time. When we have a holiday like Memorial Day, which always falls on a Monday, our trash pickup is delayed a day. This is not a life or death situation, but I’m sure there …

Out and About – Week of May 31st

It’s payback time! Tired of receiving all that junk mail offering you the opportunity to carry around another piece of plastic? My advice is to take that postage paid envelope they always enclose and fill it with the propaganda they want you to read. Fill that envelope and send it back to them, but don’t forget to leave out anything …
