Little bits of this & that…

From the notebook….
• Deanna Banry says she & her family are going to have the restaurant at the bowling alley open by the end of the month – calling it The Banry Cafe, with new decor & menu…watch for it!
• Lori Guard says it was the “Game of the Century” as the the softball girls scored the runs they needed as they trailed 6-2 in the seventh but came away with a 7-6 come-from-behind win that allows the Wolverines to continue to the Tri-Districts tourney in Sedro Woolley this weekend. You can tell who was at the game Saturday – the fans are still hoarse from all the yelling.
• When I went to the grocery store at 8pm on Sunday night, I ran into folks who all seemed to be smiling & cheerful. I said hey & asked, “You just got through seeing Charlie Brown, didn’t you?”…and they all had. Last weekend is this weekend…you’ll love it.
• Jody Price could use a hand – Senior Presentations are next week on Tuesday, and she needs some community members to help by sitting in & hearing what the kids have been doing for the past 12 years & write up evaluations. I’ve done it before (and gonna do it this year) and it’s really cool – hope you sign up. Call Jody at FHHS at 378-5215 for more info.
And – you’re invited to come, too!
• The Historical Museum has a cool presentation this week – here’s more from Kevin:
