Bike to School Day was delayed a week because of the rainy weather. Kids love bicycling to school and physical activity helps them form healthy habits that can last a lifetime. It also helps them build strong bones, muscles and joints, and it decreases the risk of obesity. Plus, it's a lot fun!

This is just the latest telephone scam to be received by a Spring Grove resident. Other scams might say you owe back taxes, there’s a problem with your credit card account, or your computer is infected with a virus that the caller can fix if you give them access to your computer.
