- Sweetwater Center for the Arts Summer Camps at Beaver Station Good news and bad news, folks! Good news: School is just about out! No more packing lunches and waking up sluggish, miserable kids for school, no more waiting at the bus stop or driving the kids to school (which, might I add, is significantly more confusing than the drop off scene in Mr. Mom). Sunny […]
- The Great Beaver County Donut Throwdown My last few articles have been on the healthy side (Fellowship Foods, Sproutz…) so I figure we could all use a little palate cleanser with a donut throwdown! And since I signed up for the Daman’s Strength Training Fit Mom Challenge and it starts on Saturday, well, what better time to do it (Coach Mary […]
- Wagner’s Home Improvement in New Brighton When you are doing the dreaded home remodeling, where do you go? Do you pick the big box store by the mall or that other one in Chippewa?? What if I told you there was a third option – a family owned and operated business – right on the main street of New Brighton??
- Make Your Home a “Guaranteed Bug Free Zone” with Boo’s Bug Stoppers Few things make Ana happier than to say she lives in a "Guaranteed Bug Free Zone." Josh and his team at Boo’s Bug Stoppers have been her bug stopping heros! They are quick to respond to her calls, quick to arrive, and quick to treat any problems. They get the Beaverhausen Stamp of Approval for sure!
- Debo Moving and Storage Moving is stressful, but having the right movers on the job is not. The Beaverhausen’s are Debo users for life now!! These guys know their stuff and they are a great asset to have during moving time.
- Chocolate Heaven: Behind the Scenes at Rosalind Candy Castle Sometimes in life, there are magical things that happen. Births of kids, marriages, pets brought into your life... I had one of these magical things happen this past week when I got the YBC Golden Ticket to go behind the scenes at Rosalind Candy Castle in New Brighton. Even now a few days later, I am still smiling like a butcher’s dog! It was a great experience.
- The Beaver County Brewery Tour Ana spend a few afternoons and evenings "researching" each of the local breweries here in Beaver County. She had a blast trying lots of different beers at each one, and she was even able to write down some thoughts on the parts that she actually remembered!
- The Fairport: Beaver County’s Hidden Gem The amazing part of this restaurant is that most of everything they sell is all made in house. The breads. The dressings. Wing sauces. Gravies. Soups. Desserts. CANDIES. This is, by far, the most impressive display of house made deliciousness I have seen in quite some time!
- This Weekend in Beaver: The Art Walk There is a new event this year in Beaver, and I am pretty excited about it!! Stray Cat Studio has put together an entire month long celebration of art throughout Beaver and Lawrence counties, and this Saturday, October 1st, is Beaver’s turn in the event!

- The Second Annual Beaver Wine Festival Wine Fest in the Beav’ is back for a second year and it will be even better than it was last year! Some things are the same, some things are new, but let’s just all agree that all of the things are awesome.
- Collective Goods: Get More, Give Back Over the past 25 years, Books Are Fun has given back over half a billion dollars (that’s billion, with a B!) in money and goods. These funds have been raised from a total of 351,000 events nationwide. That’s a good bit of givin, amiright? When your workplace holds an event, you decide where the money goes. Do you want to raise funds for a company party? Or do you partner up with a nationally recognized charity? What about a local fundraiser? Whatever you chose is fine with them. They will be sending the check to whomever you choose.
- Hallowed Grounds: Where Beaver County Gets “The Good Stuff” I want to talk about coffee. Delicious, caffeinated beverage that wakes you up and keeps you pleasant throughout the day. The Nectar of the Gods. The reason millions of people don’t fall asleep at their desk after lunch. But I don’t want to talk about just any old coffee. No NO. What I want to talk about is the good stuff… Hallowed Grounds.
- Get Your Lunch Delivered From Battaglia’s "Hi. It’s today’s lunchtime hunger calling. I have been taken hostage by laziness and don’t want to go out in the heat. Please get delivery, and not vending machine. Thanks. PS. You look great today"
