The reason for your three day weekend
Check out the brief but meaningful service today at Soldiers' Hill in Springdale Cemetery at 2 o'clock or one of many other commemorations in the area today and tomorrow. Those who sacrificed it all and their families deserve nothing less.

We discovered an amazing treasure today in Peoria Heights. If you haven't checked it out quite frankly you're missing out!

The AMAZING award-winning artwork, of Creative Soul featured artist Linda Webb! You can visit with Linda and and learn more about her art Friday, June 5 from 12 to 1 as part of our annual monarch art and education event at the Dunlap Public library! The event will be from 12 to 3 with monarch caterpillars, butterflies*, members of the Central Illinois Monarch Butterfly Task Force, a free art project with Creative Soul, and tie-dying with the Dunlap library from 1 to 2 (bring your own item to dye they will supply the dye)

After many months in time out behind our construction fence, Whiskey is finally back out in the open. Feel free to take a selfie with him by the courthouse along Hamilton Boulevard.

He promises he won't bite. Not anymore. 🦬

🎶"And they cut into my skin
And they cut into my body
But they will never get a piece of my soul
And now I'm still learning the lesson
To awake when I hear the call
And if you ask me why I am still running
I'll tell you I run for us all."🎶 -Melissa Etheridge
