Family Movie Night at the Library Wednesday


Columbia School District Food Service Staff recognized


Members of the food service staff of the Columbia Borough School District were recognized at last week's school board meeting. The staff served breakfast to a record number of students this year.

Every borough student is eligible for a free breakfast at the school they attend. The service is provided by the Community Eligibility Provision offered by the PA Department of Education to school districts with a high percentage of students who qualify for free breakfast.  Former PA Senator Mike Brubaker (far right) represented the Hunger-Free Lancaster County Coalition and participated in the recognition.

About Town

 So, does that mean America has gone to the dogs? In the current climate, one could make that argument.

There's another one of those C-130s.

 Little libraries have been popping up around town. That's a good thing.

 Wired?

 State Police on the hunt

 Covered by LASA

 Word to the wise - Don't trespass!

 One could also run or bike.

 No it's not a barrier on Locust Street, it's another huge truck coming through town. So that bypass was built . . . why?

 There it goes!

 How much is that . . . well, you know.

 That's right - we bad!

 The woods are on fire! Not really, just a winter sunset.

 New bike rack at Columbia Crossing. Thanks, Lancaster Bicycle Club!

 Roller ready to roll

 Kingfisher at River Park

 He was looking for minnows.

 Sez who?

 There it is - a replacement bench for the one damaged during tree cutting last year.

 Theocracies are never a good idea.

 Here's another little library.

 Sometimes a doorway is just a storage space.

 Don't you hate when you open the door and find a pile of bricks?

 Pole dance

Work done, time to rest
