Bring your Jack-O-Lantern to Mill Pond Park for a little fall fun. Youth and adults of all ages are invited to compete in this 21st annual event. The goal is to roll your pumpkin down the hills as fast as your can. Winners will receive a fun mystery prize and everyone will enjoy hot cider, donuts, a pumpkin launcher and some laughs. There will be separate divisions for carved and uncarved pumpkins.
This event is free, but registration is required. Visit salinerec.com.

Patchy rain nearby, with a high of 53 and low of 22 degrees. Don't forget your umbrella! Overcast in the morning, cloudy in the afternoon and evening, clear overnight.
I have to commend the Saline City manager and engineer for keeping their cool and for their professionalism during the three hour Mill Pond Dam town hall meeting.
I think what's insulting is that the city is bloating the numbers to bolster their case.
Logically, the dam has no practical use. Of course, it's going to cost more. Of course, there's a level of risk there. Of course, over some period of time, it's going to cost more to maintain than a stream.
Life cycle cost analysis is certainly appropriate when considering new assets, but it may not be as appropriate when evaluating existing assets.
