Health Remains a Top Concern Entering the New Year

January 1, 2023 By quadcities Leave a Comment

  This new year, COVID-19 is sharing the headlines with the flu and RSV, or respiratory syncytial virus.

August 26, 2021 By quadcities Leave a Comment

Event planners are busier than ever and, not surprisingly, smaller weddings have taken the lead, especially in Northern Arizona. “We’ve had a lot of micro-weddings of 50 people or less since March this year,” said Prescott-based Luella House Weddings and soon-to-open historic Willow Creek Inn owner Nancy Bewley. “I think it’s because small weddings make sense to people right now. People can spread out and the couple can have those who are most dear and closest to them attend, plus the expense … [Read more...] about Saying ‘I Do’ to Micro-Weddings
