On The Calendar

A day late and a dollar short on posting this week's calendar. Had full intentions to getting this on yesterday but never go around to it. Sorry 'bout that...

Saw our first robin last Tuesday – a big old fat one just singing away over on Riverside.

We had two different flood watches last week – one early in the week and the other just this past week-end. We dodged the bullet earlier in the week and the National Weather Service predicts Wellsville will crest sometime Monday evening at 8.2'. That's below flood stage. The big concern is the snow melt in the Pennsylvania hills. All that snow in Seven Springs eventually melts and passes the ville at some point in time. The dips into the colder temperatures must be slowing that down a bit making it more manageable.

Those Wellsville Tigers keep finding a way to win. Last Wednesday they defeated Canton Heritage Christian. That earned them a trip back to Struthers Saturday for an anniversary match up with Lake Center Christian. Like a year ago the result was the same with the Tigers winning by nearly the same score. Now they will be playing Youngstown Christian on Tuesday in the District Semi-finals. Congratulations guys and Good Luck Tuesday. We know you can find a way.

Also Good Luck to Daw Middle School wrestlers Seth Bloor & Alex Potts this coming week-end.

The 12th Annual Basement Bistro at Covenant Presbyterian starts Friday evening at the church. It's $15 and that gets you a chicken dinner with all the trimmings plus a very entertaining show. You can get your tickets by calling Erin at 330-853-3837. The bistro will run both Friday and Saturday.

The benefit spaghetting dinner for the CC Humane Society will have Kat & Jake cooking the pasta and meatballs. Carry-outs will be available. It's $7 per person, $4 for children and children under age 4 eat free. There will be a raffle of gift baskets. Anyone bringing donations for the shelter will be given free raffle tickets.

The WAMA Lenten Evening Services begins this Sunday. It will be held each Sunday during Lent at different churches with a guest minister. Guest Speaker for this coming Sunday is Minister Kathy Beckwith at Frist Methodist. The public is invited.

Don't forget to turn your clocks ahead one hour this coming Saturday night or Sunday. Daylight Savings begins. Spring ain't far behind. If you forget you're going to be an hour early for everything.

Have a good week everybody...
