There is no escaping the fact that the human body changes as it ages. Some changes associated with aging are beneficial, such as increased wisdom and knowledge from past experiences. Others, particularly changes to health and wellness, can be disconcerting.
Last November, Eureka residents saw a new gateway erected over Main Street just north of River Street. The gateway was just a portion of the Strategic Economic Expansion and Development (SEED) grant awarded to the City of Eureka for directional signage project.
It’s that time again to fill out those end-of-year reports. The Hamilton City Library has had an exciting 2023. Three grants have been awarded to the library this year-just to name a few! Lots of work and preparation during 2022 made a couple of grants happen and patrons turned out to see what it was all about. Jan. 3, 2023 began the all-time favorite event “The Spice of the Month Club.” Hamilton Library was given 20 packets prepared by the Greenwood County Extension Office in Eureka with the first spice, “Chinese Five Spice” plus two recipes and an informative history sheet telling about the spice. About 10 days later, all 20 packets were handed out and the team of Greenwood County libraries decided to increase the distribution for the next spice. For the rest of the year, the library handed out 35 packets each month. Over 35 people were signed up so they looked forward to picking up their spice bags at the earliest possible time.
