Homecoming, taxes, solar, and more

Good morning, friends. Here's this week's 5-Minute Brief — the local stuff worth knowing without digging through Facebook for 45 minutes.

This week in Pike County

• PHS Homecoming is here.
• A school and tax town hall you'll probably want to know about.
• Construction updates around Pittsfield.
• The county's solar debate continues.
• The Griggsville Apple Festival is coming.
• A pretty awesome local State Fair win.
• And a Pike County resident turning 100.

We're going to keep doing these each week. If there's an event, accomplishment, fundraiser, meeting or something happening around Pike County that people should know about, send it our way and we'll put it in the next brief.

Family coming into town for Homecoming, a wedding, a reunion, hunting season or just a visit? Book direct and save.
