CORRECTION: The town meeting on May 26 is going to be a town board workshop. The public hearing portion will be held May 28. People wishing to speak probably aren't going to be able to do that on May 26. Sorry for the confusion.
Today was another Woodcroft Wednesday, so everything was a little behind. Anyways, apparently the underground art museum story or something else in last week's paper made it very appealing. Our unique online visitors cracked 6,300 (up by a few hundred) for the week, and our paper sales went up considerably, too. So, that's good news for us and satisfying because it's an indicator we're giving you good stuff. Thanks for reading and keep it up.
Also, several things came in late to the paper-making process yesterday, so here's a rundown of public hearings where you can make yourself heard on the town and county's budgets:
Hillsborough — 7 p.m. Tuesday, May 26: hearing on the general fund budget at the Town Barn (but not a public hearing).
— 7 p.m. Thursday, May 28: hearing on the water/sewer fund budget. I'll be at both of those, as well as ...
Orange County — 7 p.m. Thursday, May 21: hearing at the Central Orange Senior Center.
— 7 p.m. Tuesday, May 26: hearing at the Southern Human Services Center in Chapel Hill.
On a separate note, our two high school interns, Miles and Marnie, are working on a few projects during their few weeks here. They are investigating summer activities — camps, volunteer opportunities and anything else — for young people, people with children and seniors. If there is a summer activity (ongoing or on specific dates) happening in Orange County, we'd love to include it. Send your ideas/insight to editorial@newsoforange.com.
