Yesterday was a bit dreary and cooler. Today we have an 80% chance of showers, mainly before 9:00 am. High near 56 degrees, with a northwest wind 10 to 13 mph. Tonight will be mostly clear, with a low around 41.
Today is the deadline to register in advance to vote in the 2020 General Election; it’s also the deadline to update voter information. Voters will also have the opportunity to register, in person, during the eight days of early voting, October 26th through November 2nd, and on Election Day, November 3rd.
Last week, the Clean and Green team placed mums in the planters around downtown Oakland. This is the 3rd year the team, composed of volunteers, has kept the planters filled with summer and fall flowers. The mums were purchased by the team using prize money they were awarded at last year’s “Run for It” in Tucker County, WV. The team also weeded and added new mulch to the Veterans Park and built some pumpkin stacks at the Pocket Park. Thanks to all Clean and Green team members. Here’s a photo of some of their work:

And remember, we can post your ad for the low price of $25 for as long as needed until it sells! And no, you can not sell your spouse on the Marketplace, so don’t even ask… 🙂
