Sign of the Times

As I pulled into the carport after a meeting today and I was greeted with a nice little sign. This one was about 15 feet up in a tree. There was some remaining berries from the summer. Just another reminder that its Thanksgiving.

Happy Holidays from me to you!

History Faire

Halloween Custumes

Woodland School seventh grader Piper Deans jokes with sixth grader Luke Kreykes during a break between presentations. Deans and Kreykes were playing Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Jackson. Kreykes said, "having to wear a wig is the hardest part about being Andrew Jackson." Kreykes removed the wig between presentations. Deans added, " having to go to goodwill and find the clothes was the toughest part of the assignment.

Fellow students were given clues about different presidents and they had to ask the couples questions to find out which president they had. Woodland students celebrated halloween with a History Faire. This year's theme is "presidents" in which the students learned about various aspects such as election terms, campaigning, Senate and the House of Representatives.

For the Cause

A stroll down the TART Trail...

Oneupweb is at it again. Despite the worlds shrinking bank accounts and spending money an idea from the past this company is reaching out.

Combining their efforts with Tom's Food Market on the west side of Traverse City, MI Oneupweb is donating food to Sal's Kitchen, a Salvation Army Food Pantry, with a total dollar amount rounding to $9000.00. Canned Tuna, soup, pears, instant rice, oats and even Mac-n-Cheese with be picked up at the open space by Sal's Kitchen.

The hard work of the event was done by all 36 Oneupweb employees. Each pushed a cart full of food from Tom's to the Open Space. My hat is off to the hard working employees of Oneupweb!

The Big Traverse City Game

Rain, cold temperatures, screaming fans....

Friday night lights were blazing bright at Thirlby field. No surprise that the cold temperatures and rain didn't scare anyone away. The stands were full to the brim and the end zones packed of fans getting soaked watching a run away train.

Traverse City Central's players charged the field and kept the momentum moving throughout the game. The TC West Titans made a stand in the second half but wasn't enough to conquer the Trojans.

The new rivalry is becoming the fall event of the year. If you missed it this year check out the Traverse City Record-Eagle for the full story.

Its time to carve a pumpkin!
