Trees, Tickets, and Tournaments: October Surprises Await!

Activism - Bowling - Education - Homecoming Events - Protests in Nigeria - Tree Removal - Wright State Athletics

From homecoming celebrations to tree removals, this October is packed with surprises! Discover what’s happening this week!

As October rolls in, Wright State Athletics is gearing up for a lively week packed with competitive spirit and high stakes. The bowling team kicks off their season with an exciting conference event at the Mercyhurst Invitational. It's a fresh start, and fans are eager to see how their favorite bowling athletes will fare against tough competitors. Can they strike gold this season, or will they leave us rolling in laughter? Stay tuned to follow their journey!

Meanwhile, on the city management front, Westmount Park is getting an important safety upgrade. A tree that has seen better days is being removed due to its advanced deterioration. Located near the playground and library entrances, this tree has become a looming safety concern for community members. Nothing says 'autumn' quite like a fallen tree, and this one will soon join the ranks of legends told in local lore—"Remember the tree that dared to stand by the playground!"

In sports news, the fun continues with Homecoming events scheduled from October 4-6! This festive weekend will be a feast for the senses, featuring athletic events that bring out school spirit, delicious food trucks, and even an all-campus worship service. Even if you’re not an alum, you're invited to partake in reunion dinners and lifelong learning sessions. As the cherry on top, the annual Homecoming 5K is set to kick off, and whether you’re running or watching, it promises to be a good time!

And for those who seek artistic inspiration, mark your calendars for the “What We Offer Grows” exhibition starting October 10 at the Frankie G. Weems Gallery. Featuring Brooklyn-based artist Menika Lue, this exhibition runs until November 3, 2024, and hints at profound themes relating to growth and possibilities. In other news, as the second month of October unfolds, Georgia's Hemp Farming Act has officially taken effect—bringing new opportunities and developments in the agricultural sector!

Did you know that the annual Homecoming event brings back thousands of alumni each year, showcasing the strong sense of community within universities? It's a chance for past students to reconnect while celebrating their shared experiences. Meanwhile, regarding tree removals, did you know that trees can become a safety hazard as they age? Felling them not only protects people but also opens opportunities for new plantings, promoting environmental growth and sustainability!
