Ray of light

Saying goodbye

Tonight is the public reception for departing city manager David Corliss at 5:30 p.m. at the Carnegie Building, 200 W. Ninth St. Come and wish him well as he departs Lawrence after serving with the city since 1990. He is going to Castle Rock, Colo.

Shake off the Mondays

Why not start the week with something fun? Every Monday night, enjoy live country music at Wayne & Larry’s in the Hillcrest Shopping Center, Ninth and Iowa Streets. Grab a bite to eat or a cold drink and scoot your boots to start off your week!
