Saturday, November 5, 2022, There will music back at the Bull Shoals Theater of the Arts. We have moved to Saturday nights from 7 p.m.

As we look to clean up leaves, twigs, dried up plants, etc. common this time of year. Instead of throwing away the debris, there’s a crafty alternative: build a pollinator nest. Some gardeners toss twigs, thatch and branches at the end of fall to prepare for winter. But those dry plant materials are where some pollinator species — such as bees, butterflies, wasps, flies and beetles — hibernate through the winter to emerge next spring. And now ― as plants dry out, stems harden, and temperatures drop ― is the perfect time to gather this hollow material pollinators love.

With Election Day just around the corner (next Tuesday, November 8, to be exact), I was reminded of another election night many, many years ago. Don’t worry, this is in no way political (although if you know me, you know I am a political creature).

It continues to be busy around Have a Heart Pet Shelter. Along with several adoptions, both locally and out-of-state, we had a great time visiting with folks at our Turkey Trot booth and soon we will be gearing up for our Annual Soup and Chili Supper (with a cake and pie auction) planned for November 19.

Welcome to the spookiest month of the year. Join us to celebrate on Oct 31st. We will be hosting two parties that afternoon. Dress up and eat candy…sounds great right? Too bad it is just for the Teens, Tweens, and Littles.
