Around the Town: March / April 2010
Posted by Laura Nelson on March 14, 2010
Believe it or not, Spring is just a couple short weeks away! Time to get the lawn mower tuned up at Carlson’s True Value, now that temperatures are inching past thirty degrees. There are plenty of things to address once the snow is gone for good–contact Lawn Doctor to set up a fertilizing program, get your deck restored by Dave’s Premier Decks, and be ready for summer with Jet Fan.
While waiting for the big thaw, make progress on renovating your home to keep it updated. Our local contractors have great suggestions for giving you the best return on money invested in your home. Kitchens and baths take the prize for best investments. Basements are making a strong showing too.
Sign up now for camps and classes. Spring break and Summer activities are educational, inspirational and fun. Kids will have fun at the Spring Fling Wing Ding at It’s Our Earth, where they’ll learn about repurposing.
We’re pleased to introduce some new Health & Fitness concepts this month, with an expanded section and new advertisers. Drs. Francis and Anderson in Wheaton offer high-tech same day tooth restoration. No temporaries needed. Dr. Rasper can diagnose the source of your pain, and correct your misalignment. If your elderly folks need assistance to remain in their home, BrightStar Health Care can help. And, to clean out your personal plumbing, call Shellie Carter for a colonic at Alder Healing Center.
Contest Winners for February include: Jenny Chang, Winfiled; Ellen Hampson and Ann Miller, Glen Ellyn; Marilyn Himmel, Carol Stream; Heri Peterlin, Naperville. They’ll be enjoying performances at the MAC Performing Arts Center at College of DuPage and Drury Lane Oakbrook Terrace.
We’re taking the month of March off for our contest, as we’ll be moving our office. We’ll resume it once we get settled.
Remember to let our advertisers know where you saw their ad, please! And continue to Shop Locally, Think Globally!
