Wands, winners and big plans for Bucks
I don’t know if you’ve been to Michael’s (the craft store) lately but they have the coolest collection of miniatures for fall and Halloween. Too soon you say? Well, yeah, probably.
But you know what’s right on time? Tuesday’s dose of good news.
Bucks gets a boost
Turns out money can buy happiness (let’s all say “duh” together).
Governor Shapiro just handed out another round of state grants and Bucks scooped up a pretty hefty slice of the pie.
What’s on the shopping list? A large entertainment complex coming to Bristol (think rooftop restaurant, patios, indoor food hall), redevelopment upgrades for Levittown and Dublin and fresh funding for the Falls fire company.
Expect construction cones now so you have somewhere cool to hang out later.
Mischief managed
Doylestown’s favorite Harry Potter shop just pulled off its ultimate magic trick: tripling in size. Wizarding Ways has apparated from its original spot over to East Oakland Avenue.
The shop now boasts three times the space for wands, robes, Butterbeer treats and whatever impulse buy your inner Gryffindor insists you need. Unless you’re a Slytherin. You’re not a Slytherin are you…?
Heading to the big leagues
Clear your calendar and start practicing your “I knew them before they were famous” speech.
The Penn Athletic Rebels 12U girls team just blew through the regional tourney and punched their ticket to the NFL Flag Football Championships in Indiana.
They’re heading out to represent us on the national stage. So if you hear extra loud cheering coming from the fields this week, you know why. Let’s go girls (say it in your Shania Twain voice, it feels so good)!
Guess I’ll be waving my new wand at the TV this week, wishing for the Penn girls to bring home the chip. Now if only that wizarding wand could do my 9-5 for me…
See you Thursday for the weekend goods!
May we all find a magic chore wand,
Cait, From Bucks
