Saturday VCPR held its annual \u201cParktober Festival\u201d \u00a0in Chautauqua Park celebrating the beginning of Fall.\u00a0 There were numerous activities with something to interest most everyone in the large crowd.\u00a0 Thank you to the VCPR folks for facilitating another great event in Valley City.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fall is a beautiful, busy time in our area.\u00a0 Schools are in session, buses are on the road, construction zones are buzzing and harvest in progress to name few.\u00a0 All involved are trying to go \u201csomewhere\u201d and often under time constraints.\u00a0 Be careful, \u201ctake a breath\u201d, take your time\u00a0 and \u201cget there\u201d safely.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was a good weekend for Valley City High School Football, Valley City State Football, University of North Dakota Football and North Dakota State Football as they all scored more points than the opponents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even though the sunshine doesn\u2019t make it feel like October just yet, Officer McWaddles would like to remind everyone of the seasonal parking rules now in effect. \u00a0

  • From October through March, certain streets\u2014including downtown and many others\u2014become No Parking Zones or restricted no parking overnight areas.\u00a0<\/li><\/ul><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Why? These restrictions allow city crews to safely and efficiently clear snow and ice, keeping our roads open and safe during winter weather events. It will help prevent snow build-up making travel easier and safer for everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    A big thank you to our city employees who, during these busy times, are working long hours at desks, providing customer service and to the folks who are regularly working in the freezing cold and 100 degree heat.\u00a0 Due to their dedication the lights come on when we flip the switch and when we turn the water on, we are Blessed with the best tasting water in the state. Perhaps as important as anything, when we flush the toilet, it works!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The Seattle Mariners team is the only Major League Baseball team that has not played in a World Series.\u00a0 There seems to be a number of \u201cgood guys\u201d on the team so I am a new Mariner enthusiast.\u00a0 It would be a nice story.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Thank you to all who provide and proof material for this column.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \u201c<\/strong>Faith is the strength by which a shattered world shall emerge into the light<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong>~ Helen Keller<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
