Nobody ever tells you how hard or stressful it is to be a senior. You have to figure out what you want to be, apply to a college that best fits you, keep your grades up, and be a role model all at the same time. Luckily, seniors were given the opportunity to apply to these colleges.
There will be a meaningful discussion about “Trailblazing Morris County,” the Greater Morris County Development Corporation’s outcome-driven initiative to strengthen our county’s economy. The five-year strategic plan (2023-2027) includes input from 125 business and county leaders and focuses on workforce development, housing, business retention/ expansion/recruitment, and community development and marketing.
Thanks to a modified position on masking for healthcare workers, issued by both CDC and KDHE, the Board of Morris County Hospital and its Clinics has authorized staff to take a relaxed masking position as well, effective 7 a.m., Wednesday, October 12, 2022. As our county’s current 7 day rolling average of positive COVID testing per 100,000 population is at 71, or less than 100, the hospital and clinics are eligible to make mask wearing as a recommendation inside the facilities, but not a requirement. The particular handful of conditions for staff continuing to wear masks will be handled via a revised in-house policy.
The Gathering in the Grove looked different this year. Last year it was advertised as the final year for the event. It was the last year being held under previous leadership and at the Carnegie Building. This year, however, brought new interest and new artists that are interested in reviving, sustaining and honoring Gathering in the Grove.
