  • Finders, seekers

    About 40 local children took part in a scavenger hunt downtown last Saturday, part of the Holiday in the Village activities organized by Chamber of Commerce employees Holly Simpson and Lauren Mikesell, who are now busy planning the adult version to take place this weekend. Shown above, Loren George and Tiger Jane Collins, both 5, showed off the items they found at the Yellow Springs Arts Council. The items found at each location went together to create a picture frame, which the children assembled at the the Senior Center, the hunt’s last stop. See more photos from the events on page 8.

  • Future first responders

  • Rollin’, rollin’, rollin’…

    Brigid and Conner Digiacomo, ages 6 and 8, of Beavercreek were told to find a pumpkin they could carry to the car. They did their best to find ones that rolled instead. (photo by Suzanne Ehalt)

  • Not two-tired…

    The Antioch School held its recently-revived Anything On Wheels fundraising event Sunday, Sept. 23, where students, both present and past, ride from the school on Corry Street to Xenia and back for a total of about 15 miles on bicycles, unicycles, skateboards — anything on wheels. Experienced riders can choose to go the whole distance, while those new to wheels can ride around the path surrounding the school playground. Pictured above are, from left, graduate Jorie Sieck, Sam Linden (obscured), graduate Zack Brintlinger-Conn, Evelyn Potter, graduate Samantha Bold and Zenya Hoff-Miyazaki. Sieck and Brintlinger-Conn rode the entire 15 miles on unicycles, accompanied by Bold and Hoff-Miyazaki. They were met in the last stretch by their peers who had finished and circled back to bring them home. (Photo by Matt Minde)

  • Laying out his wears (pun intended)

    Villager Robert Paschell, shown here penning puns and poems for Jennifer Scott, was one of almost 100 artists who took part in last weekend’s Art on the Lawn, sponsored by Village Artisans. The unusually cool August weather drew a good crowd to the event, which took place in front of Mills Lawn School. (Photo by Suzanne Ehalt)

  • Life of a century, and some change
