In this issue
We announce our first- ever jazz concert to be held on September 28th in the Village Park. The local produce sold at our Farmers' Market is reaching its peak and details about that are provided. You also have an opportunity to get rid of recyclables that are difficult to recycle (seems odd, doesn't it?) at no cost to you.
As always, we want to hear from you. What other kinds of information would you like to see in this space? Where are we going wrong? Is there a recurring feature that you especially like? Constructive criticism is welcomed because it will make this newsletter better. Praise is great, too, because it makes our heads swell. And, for goodness sake, who doesn't like a swollen head?

Jazz concert coming to town
On Saturday, September 28th, the Village will host a jazz concert in Wadsworth Park. The Fat Katz jazz band will play from 6 PM until 10 PM. And the concert is FREE!
The Savanna House will be the food and beverage vendor and owner Mary Bennett promises to have some knockout stuff to eat and drink. So come on down for a good time. Bring your lawn chairs and blankets and whatever else you need to be comfortable.
If this type of event is popular with our residents, consideration will be given to hosting some kind of OctoberFest concert. For comments and suggestions, email committee chairperson Geralyn Hansen at [email protected]. |
Downtown road construction
 Does this look familiar in our downtown? We'll give you a complete road construction update in the next issue.
The good news is that, as of this week, the general contractor remains confident that this project will be done by the end of the year. 
Keep alert for paving activities and traffic lane changes that are planned for the next two weeks in this area.
