During the upcoming (September 4-7) Twin City Days, there will be a doubles tennis tournament. They have already recruited some great sponsors, and the money raised is going to help with Kade’s Playground. (If you don’t know what that is, you can check out Herculaneum’s website which has a page devoted to it or the playground’s Facebook page.) If you’d like to sign up for the tournament and drag your racket out of hiding, here’s your chance. You’ll find a link for the flyer and registration form below. The organizers would love for you to print off the flyer and post it at work, church, etc. if you have a chance to spread the word. Happy Aggasiing…Wait, is that even a word?!
Vectors
All the little ones are back in school raring to go with new backpacks, shoes, and a box of tissue at the ready. What? You didn’t send them with hand sanitizer and tissues galore! How did you miss that memo?
Small children are basically vectors. No, not a moving object with direction, but…disease vectors.
Oh the horror!
In case you didn’t send them with the tissue equivalent of a semi-truck, you might review this video for a tissue alternative. It is a slightly humorous stab at tissue-lovers everywhere but teaches a good lesson too.
