News Around Town: If you’re looking for a new hobby (or to practice an existing hobby further), the Park and Rec Department has lots of options. From yoga to art-making, there’s something on their roster to fulfill your New Year’s goal. No need to camp overnight to get a spot for your yoga mat at the gym, each class has a limited number of spots. The affordability is a bonus: get fit, be more creative, and save some dough in 2019.

One Good Thing: We’re constantly discussing what works and doesn’t work on the Matthews Beacon site as a whole, and one difficult task has been organizing archived articles. We've added three indexes for easier access: Articles by Author, Articles by Category, and Articles by Date. When you click on Latest News, you’ll see a drop down menu for these options. Give it a whirl and let us know what you think.
