Free athletic physicals for WRV students
Saturday, June 2, 2007 Free physicals for WRV students who will be participating in athletics during the next school year will be given on Wednesday, June 20 at the Lyons Medical Clinic. Physicals for incoming seventh and eighth graders are scheduled for 6:00—6:45 p.m. Physicals for incoming Sophomores, Juniors and Seniors are scheduled for 6:45—7:30 p.m. (Freshmen won’t be left out in the cold but were left off the announcement—probably ’cause they’re so special and can go anytime.)
Watch the colors change on a leaf cam
Thursday, May 31, 2007 October is here and the leaves have started changing their colors. By the end of the month, the show will be over. Some years it’s hard to predict which weekend will be the most colorful one, and the very best time to take that Sunday afternoon drive. So do you know about Indiana’s leaf cams? Here’s a link to watch the leaves change colors day-by-day through The Leaf Cam in Brown County State Park… There are others at locations farther north or south but the leaves here in Greene County progress at about the same rate as those in Brown County. The leaf cams are turned off at night but are on every day through the Fall Season. The leaf cam will also be listed in the Weather Links on the Times site. For those who are far from home and can’t see the leaves out their kitchen window, check out the leaf cam - remember when you were kicking through those bright yellow leaves walking up Main Street after school in Worthington?

Wednesday, May 30, 2007 In the Greene County Daily World today - if you read their article about the reaction of county law enforcement agencies to the rising gas prices, you’ll be proud of the Worthington Police Department. Where others say they are now cutting back on off-duty driving, the WPD said they started conserving long before the current crisis and have started foot patrols!
