Veterans Alliance to Host Memorial Day Ceremony
Every year on Memorial Day as I was growing up, my mother would take me to a cemetery an hour away to visit the grave of my father. He had died while in active service in the Air Force when I was just five months old. This impressed upon me a great respect for the day.

Introducing the Friendly Awards
Nothing beats a genuine, glowing smile to brighten your day. Or a heart-warming greeting and conversation when you need some uplifting. Conversely, it’s no fun to enter an establishment where you’re given a perfunctory hello or worse yet, when you’re completely ignored. An atmosphere of doom and gloom where employees so obviously don’t want to be there can make a person want to never darken the door again.
Imagine Clearwater Ribbon Cutting Postponed
The Clearwater City Council agreed to postpone the ribbon cutting of Imagine Clearwater scheduled for Monday, May 24, 2021.

Lumber costs have risen an astounding 375% from April 2020 to April 2021.

Burritos, Mariachis and Piñatas, Oh My! Cinco de Mayo in Clearwater
There’s something about Cinco de Mayo that does it. May 5th rolls around and you suddenly have a craving for Mexican food and an ice cold beer!. How did Cinco de Mayo (Spanish for ‘Fifth of May’) originate into a mad dash for tacos and enchiladas? The date originally commemorated the Mexican Army’s victory over the French Empire at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862.

Attendees could follow this feast with an orange ice cream cone provided by Dairy Kurl.
Golf’s brave new world
The great game of golf is at a crossroad. Like all sports, growth depends on young people taking an interest, but a new era of entertainment is a reality. More and more youngsters are eschewing outdoor sports for indoor amusement: video games. And let’s face it, video games can be addictive. My own kids are glued to a controller and monitor for hours at a time, engrossed in visual fantasies far more realistic than toy soldiers or dolls.
Working from Home With a Brand New Puppy
One of the best things about running your own Clearwater business from home is having the freedom and flexibility to surround yourself with the things you love. You get to spend more time with your family and set your office up just the way you like, plus you can finally take the plunge and get that new puppy you’ve always wanted. Because your business is still new, though, you may be worried about taking on additional responsibility, especially one that can steal your focus so easily. Here’s sound advice from business and pet owners who have been there, presented by Kelly Kelly’s Colorful Clearwater.
