It never fails. I take a Friday off and there ends up being a ton of breaking news - fires, accidents, criminal mayhem, etc. But I can bring you the highlights from Saturday's Valley Voice. The new Greenacres Park is taking shape and is on track to be done in mid-October. But people won't be able to use it this year because the grass needs time to get established. Look for a grand opening ceremony in the spring.

Reporter Lisa Leinberger attended a meeting of West Valley School District staff where concerns were raised about changes to library and music schedules after budget cuts. She also stopped in at the newest Meals on Wheels site at the Appleway Court Retirement Center.

Correspondent Juli Bergstrom Wasson also has details on a new sports bar and sandwich shop now open at Trent and Argonne.
