News About Town: Last night the Town retroactively recognized last week as National Public Works week. Public Works employees are often the first on the scene to assess storm damage, and the last lo leave after everything is tidied up again. They pave our sidewalks and patch our roads. Even though the official week is over, let’s give the department a giant thanks!
News Around Town: After 17 years underground, there are a bunch of cicadas ready to see the light of day…or the dusk of day. As some of the longest-lived insects, the 17-year cicadas’ mating calls are the soundtrack of summer evenings in the south. While we hear cicadas every year, with this additional brood the sound may be especially loud.
One Good Thing: Weaver Budd Law (352 E. Charles St.) has added two Little Free Pantries in front of their offices. Similar to Little Free Libraries, these structures hold shelf stable foods and household essentials. Have something to give? Donate away! Need something? Take it!
