The Laurel Independent, Oct 2024 edition out

Just finished perusing my copy of October 2024 edition of The Laurel Independent and here’s some of the highlights I took note of:

  • 5 Laurel-area churches have banded together to offer a “passport” among each church’s holiday bazaars: get yours punched at them all, and be entered for a $100. A great way to help local congregations, save a little on gifts for Christmas, and see your neighbors around town.
  • A helpful overview plus voting guides for federal, state, and County elections coming up Nov 5.
  • Executive Director Kit Slack recaps the survey results received on the coverage readers indicated they’d like from the Independent, and how the paper will continue to evolve in response.
  • Updates to the Main Street Walking Tour, and how you can sign-up for one.
  • The latest in City legislation, appointments, and meeting schedules for October and November.
  • Both City and local organization event calendars. (Note: Oct 19 electronics recycling/ paper shredding, Oct 24 Main Street Trick-or-Treat, Nov 1 Hayride, and Dec 7 Holiday Parade & tree-lighting.)
  • Community profiles, and much more!

Check out articles on Streetcar Suburbs News website and a full digital, flippable version should be posted soon to their Streetcar Suburbs News Issuu page — Physical copies also come via mail and are available in many hotspots around town. (Always good with a cup of coffee.) :)
