That was the case at our house until the afternoon when our 14-year-old beagle, Jennie, dashed through the gate of our fenced in back yard at Ponteberry and Armistice Sts., ran up the street and disappeared.
This may be our last summer in your beautiful area. We have loved our many years here but now, quite sadly - we are winding down. We won't be around to visit our friends for meals, or to share our family, or just to cruise around quietly on a beautiful evening and admire the sunset. We added so much beauty and we love to share and shine for your visitors. But…
Recently there have been a few events in our city, New Franklin, that remind me just how small town politics go. The first is about a shot dog.
How refreshing it is to have a financial director who actually knows what the job needs. Since we in New Franklin have brought such a person to our city, we are beginning to reap the benefits of having the skills of such a person.
As I sit to write this there are men outside, some of whom I don’t even know their names, building a wheelchair ramp for my husband. This is one of a string of events for which we want to say thank you. The lyrics from Andre Crouch’s song, to God be the Glory come to mind.
The Automotive Recyclers Association (ARA) strongly urges Congress to pass the Motor Vehicle Owners’ Right to Repair Act (S 3181/HR 2057) to ensure that the automotive repair industry remains competitive so that vehicle owners can affordably and conveniently have their vehicles serviced.
On May 22, Green High School hosted the first After-Prom at the high school following a successful prom evening at the John S. Knight Center. To make the midnight to 4 a.m. event the “where you want to be venue” many hands, dollars, and donations were sought and received.
The Motorcycle Riders Foundation strongly believes that consumers are entitled to the freedom to choose how their motorcycle, car or other type of vehicle is maintained, serviced or upgraded. That's why we support the Motor Vehicle Owners' Right to Repair Act (S3181/HR2057) and urge Congress to swiftly pass the legislation in order to safeguard individual vehicle ownership rights today and in the future.
I'm extremely disappointed with what appears to be New Franklin's decision, at least for the time being, about looking into protecting our children from stray bullets and misguided gun handlers.
It is with a deep sense of sadness, coupled, however, with great anticipation, that I announce my retirement from Lake Local Schools, effective May 28. I have no doubt that the experiences I have encountered here along with the incredible people with whom I have had the privilege to serve the students and parents of this exemplary district, will help transport me toward the next stage of my life.
Nimble fingers knit and crochet colorful items in the Prayer Shawl Ministry of The Unity Church of Truth in Jackson Township. Gifts of blankets have been donated to Canton's Domestic Violence Project and soft hats for babies given to Mercy Medical Center Montique.
Remember your pets this hot summer.
