The Southern High School Volleyball team is hosting Mountain Ridge this evening. If Soccer is more your thing, Southern’s Boys Soccer is hosting arch rival Northern High this evening as well.  Speaking of Northern High School, we would love to get postings from them for their events as well. Tell them to contact us. We are “non-political” and support both of our local high schools.

But, speaking of politics, the Greater Grantsville Business Association is hosting an open candidate forum this evening from 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm.  It is open to all, with candidates providing an overview of their positions and answering a few questions.  Get “the scoop” and be informed on the candidates in this important election! Rumor has it that good friends Donald Trump and Elizabeth Warren will be attending and serving tea and biscuits to all.  You heard it first here at The Times!

Kam and Haley at Haley Farm Inn and Retreat Center are hosting their second annual Apple Cider Party this coming Sunday.  They have hired a band and will be making apple cider the old fashioned way from 2:00 pm – 6:00 pm.

The annual National Remembrance Day Roll Call for veterans killed in our wars will be held at the Garrett College auditorium on November 9th.  Kathy Fauber, Financial Aid and Veterans Affairs Counselor is coordinating the event and is looking for readers.  Give her a call if you are interested in donating a little time to honor our veterans. Kathy can be reached at 301.376.3057. Thank you.

As a follow-up item, The E-ZPass Maryland Call Center, website and Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system are now operational and back in service. You can all reload your respective E-ZPass toll account and drive to the lake seamlessly and from anywhere.
