Graphic by Lori Deaton

Rainbow Community School would like to invite you to our Walk to School Day event. It will occur on Wednesday, Oct. 4, from 8:15 a.m. to 9 a.m. at 574 Haywood Road, Asheville.

There will be freebies provided by Active Routes to School for the youths who have decided to travel to school via walking/biking/hoverboarding/etc. There will be coffee provided by our new coffee shop, Summit Coffee Co., located in the River Arts District, for the adults who choose to travel in a similar fashion to school/work/breakfast.

Thanks for helping to make our streets safe for commuters both young and old! We’ll see you out on Haywood Road, Wednesday, Oct. 4. Come stop by!

      Gather round, kids. Settle down now. And no hitting. I’m going to tell you a story about the way that fogyism, as a social philosophy, is demented. I’m going to give it to you straight: Mr. Deplorable Infidel has gotten carried away with providing financial support to backwards banana republics and their shambolic dictators. It’s pretty clear from this lack of restraint that he would emphasize the negative in our lives instead of accentuating the positive, all at the drop of a hat. It’s therefore imperative that we think outside the box, as doing so will let Mr. Infidel know that some people doubt that letting his disciples obliterate our sense of identity is like letting the inmates run the asylum. Sadly, I can’t seem to convince such people otherwise. Regardless, let’s move on. Let me close by reminding you that I understand the responsibility of lighting the torch of human rights, and I will never let you down.
