Back to Business, Crazy 'Stache and Back Pack Challenge

Good morning from Southington Patch! Today is Thursday, Aug. 15, 2013.

1. After some time off, the Board of Education gets back to business in preparation of the upcoming school year. The meeting begins at 7 p.m. at the Southington Municipal Center.

2. Is your office community oriented? Then get involved in Give Back Girls Back Pack Challenge and show off how caring you can be. Click the link for more details.

3. The weekend is right around the corner, let us help you plan ahead. Try taking in a move at the Southington Drive-In with "Rudy" showing. It's just $10 for town residents and $13 for those from other towns.

4. Check out this 'stache! Meriden's Hector Cardona Sr. has been growing it for years and it's not good enough to earn him bragging rights as holding the best cop mustache in the nation.

5. Worried about weekend weather? Don't be! It's going to be nice and clear through the rest of the week and into the weekend, according to the National Weather Center.
