Part of the awareness we must focus on in September is an awareness of those who are left behind by suicide, who often find themselves alone after the casseroles have been eaten and the well-wishes have ceased. The years may pass, but that does not mean we have adequately addressed our myriad emotions. Sometimes we have to give ourselves permission to heal.

Village of Yellow Springs

As the doors of Super-Fly Comics and Games opened on the morning of Saturday, Sept. 2, for the 10th anniversary celebration, the overcast skies and drizzling rain did nothing to dampen the spirits of those gathered.

There’s really no knowing the extent to which Yellow Springs might be different if not for the existence of the Village Mediation Program.

Whenever I spend an extended period of time in a new environment, I find myself looking for comfort spots where I know I will be able to go when I need to take a breather. Even in this village, where everywhere feels as if it’s meant to be comforting, I found myself identifying my yard as my own little oasis within an oasis.

Board Work Session

Crews from Jurgensen Companies construction will be paving streets in the Village in the next few weeks.

We do not know what Mother Nature will bring. Yet we prepare.

About 40 local canines and their owners took part in the Labor Day Doggie Splash at Gaunt Park pool.
