Acclaimed old-time country folk musician and mountain storyteller Jerry Harmon returns to Soul Infusion from 9 p.m. until midnight Saturday, Dec. 22. Both events are free and for all ages.
EASTGATE PHARMACY...
will close its lunch counter today (Thursday). When the drug store opened its snack bar in April 1962, there were only six or seven places to eat lunch in town, said owner Kim Cowan.
