A parent's journey - set to music

2010-11-25T23:24:52-05:00

A new CD of Christmas music is a fundraiser for a Lockport couple who expect to adopt an infant from Ethiopia by early next year.
In heartfelt celebration of the “reason for the season,” and to work for their freight halfway around the world to pick up their new son, Mike and Megan Foster produced “With The Dawn,” a recording of seven original Christmas songs written by Mike and sung partly by Megan. The Fosters are half of the band Boy Named David, which already has one published CD to its credit.

Happy Thanksgiving

Town supports farmer’s market

2010-03-22T01:50:30-04:00

If residents back it, the Town of Pendleton will be holding a weekly farmer’s market on Thursdays starting in June.

The Town Board voted at a meeting March 2 to become a sponsoring agency of the market. At the meeting, there was concern about what residents would think. There will be an informational meeting for the public and potential vendors at 7 p.m. April 5 at the Town Hall, 6570 Campbell Blvd.

Supervisor James Riester said things are moving along in order to have the market ready by June.

Truck parade takes shot at record

2010-03-22T01:49:23-04:00

TOWN OF LOCKPORT — Heinrich Chevrolet knows everyone loves a parade. That’s why the South Transit Road dealership is organizing a truck parade that will attempt to break a Guinness world record while helping Niagara Hospice.

The “World’s Largest Chevy Truck Parade” will take place March 28 starting at Outwater Park. Kurt Wojda, Heinrich’s internet marketing manager, said the event is open to any Chevy truck owner who wants to participate. The parade is also a way to help unite local Chevy truck owners, much like similar events for other kinds of vehicles. The goal is to have 250 trucks participate in the parade, which would be a record.
