Traffic Signal Update...
I was reminded, on my trip to the Post Office this morning, that Sendik's is slated to open for business at 10:00AM on Thursday, September 4th.
The crew installing the traffic signals is hard at work but there sure seems a lot of work yet remaining before those are operational.
I made an inquiry to Dave Schornack, Village Administrator, who replied quickly to say that they hope to have that work done and the signals operating by September 3rd. He hastened to add, however, that this company is also installing signals for the High School and are sort of between a rock and a hard spot (my analogy) since those have to be operational by the start of the school year.
Maybe both can still be working if the weather holds as it seems likely to do. The long Labor Day week-end won't help, however.

School Survey...
I realized that we've covered part of the school survey results but never provided the link that will get you the full report.

An Oldie But Goodie...
One Sunday morning, the pastor noticed little Alex standing in the foyer of the church staring up at a large plaque. It was covered with names and small American flags mounted on either side of it. The six-year old had been staring at the plaque for some time, so the pastor walked up, stood by the little boy, and said quietly, "Good morning Alex".
Alex replied, "Good morning Pastor." His eyes still focused on the plaque, he said, "Pastor, what is this?"
The pastor said, "Well son, it is a memorial to the young men and women who died in the service."
Soberly, they just stood together staring at the large plaque. Finally, little Alex's voice, barely audible and trembling with fear asked, "Which service, the 8:30 or the 10:30?"
