Cheers & Jeers

CHEERS to all the sponsors, volunteers, employees and contributors of any kind who helped to make the Ogden Wellness Weekend events come together. We can’t wait to see you all there!

JEERS to the overuse of social media. Federal officials are now calling on parents, lawmakers and tech companies to help protect kids from its dangers.

CHEERS to the Valley Avengers for visiting Powhatan Elementary School to greet a couple of brave brothers who survived and are still recovering from an explosion and fire at their home.

JEERS to dangerous habits such as failure to wear a seatbelt. A multi-state Click It or Ticket campaign is underway to help change that behavior and, hopefully, to save lives.

CHEERS to the St. Clairsville Recreation Department for once again organizing a series of summer concerts ­– free, family-friendly entertainment that can be enjoyed by one and all.

CHEERS to Joe’s Tire for sharing its good fortune and donating $20,000 to the United Way of the Upper Ohio valley. The gift comes as the business, based in Barnesville, celebrates its 20th anniversary.

CHEERS to Terry Wildman of Martins Ferry for planning a Memorial Day observance at Riverview Cemetery in Martins Ferry at 2 p.m. Sunday.
