Look for Hunter Moon this weekend

Written by
The weather has been so beautiful this week with sunshine in the day time and clear skies at night. This weekend look for the   Big Orange Hunter's Moon...It is the first full moon following the autumnal equinox and the Harvest Moon. Saturday weather is calling for rain, however, Friday night and Sunday should provide for a good view.  One of my favorite things to do is look up at the night sky.  Enjoy !

The 20th Annual Making Strides for Breast Cancer walk netted 120 thousand dollars this weekend. I have been a part of the event since it's inaugural year!  Akron should be proud, they out do many other big cities right here in Ohio!  Proud to be from Akron.  This money will go towards research, and the many programs that support those battling breast cancer.  Remember, you are not alone!
