These are just a few of the many comments received from the eighth grade students who attended the Reality Store on Monday. The Reality Store is an annual event facilitated by the Crawfordsville chapter of Business and Professional Women and hosted by the Boys & Girls Club of Montgomery County. Eighth grade students from the county’s three middle schools attend for a brief taste of what life will be like after graduation. Adulting seemed to be the byword of the day.

Beginning next week, the Journal Review will change its publication cycle from six days a week to five days a week, publishing daily Tuesday through Saturday. This change is a result in a change in commercial printers. For the past several years the Journal Review has been printed in Terre Haute but will now be printed by AIM Media Indiana in Greenfield. The facility in east central Indiana publishes several newspapers, but does not operate on Sundays, so the Journal Review can no longer offer a Monday edition.

Often times they go and relax with their families and friends to get away for a week. Crawfordsville baseball has a little different thought process than most as for nearly the last 20 years the Athenians have used the week off from school to travel down south and play in tournaments to prepare themselves for the upcoming season.

I totally agree that it would be nice to get a Aldi store in Crawfordsville. I like the Kroger store, but I do disagree that if you live on a phone and everything you do involves a phone you get digital prices on items that the regular customer does not get. Everyone who walks into the store should be given the same price on any item in the store.

Coming off a 16-6 season and shattering nearly ever offensive record in the books, Southmont softball is once again geared up to begin its 2023 campaign. In doing so the Mounties will look to replace one of the best players to ever put on a Mountie uniform in Macie Shirk, as well as the leadership of Taylor Grino, Elizabeth Conkright, and Hanna Nichols from a year ago. However the Mounties do return six starters from last year’s team as they’ll re-tool.
