Desiree Webber, Justin Battles and Gloria Shotwell
Come by today and pick up an aerobic schedule at the Mustang Parks and Recreation Center. The Center offers Yoga, Kickboxing and other exercise classes in the morning and in the evening. Try one class or sign up for one month of classes.
The Recreation Center’s After School Program at Mustang Elementary is now taking applications for this fall. Children will be provided with snacks, homework and enrichment time plus other fun activities. The After School Program is open to Mustang Elementary students and Mustang Valley students who live within the city limits.

Local writer Ed Koonce has his first novel in publication. Above the Storm is a Christian fiction novel about Joshua Matthews, who returns home from Vietnam and meets a wonderful young woman who changes his life.
Together Joshua Matthews, Becky O’Donnell and two friends have personal experiences that change their lives and draw them nearer to God.
Above the Storm is a story that keeps you reading as the group of friends deal with life’s tragedies plus true danger in the form of a false prophet who is leading people to their deaths.
Janet Evanovich has re-released her 1990 romance story entitled Smitten. Lizbeth Kane has been divorced for less than a year and she needs a job—preferably one that allows her to be home when her two boys return from school. What Lizbeth finds is a job on a construction site. The boss feels sorry for her and does not know what else to do with her, except perhaps marry her. Smitten is a romantic comedy complete with a crazy aunt and snobby ex-husband.
Preschool story times are on Mondays at 11:00 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. and Tuesday evenings at 7:00 p.m. Story times are for children ages 3 to 7. Books, flannel board tales, songs, action rhymes and crafts are shared. No pre-registration is required. For more information regarding library services and programs, please call 376-2226.
