PRESCOTT – Good grief! We are into the third month of 2026. Time is surely flying by. In addition to a full schedule at Gathering Place in March, we have a Legion chicken dinner this Saturday and Firehall Breakfast on Sunday. Spring Break for Prescott schools is March 17-20. Senior Gathering Place is closed that week. March did start out like a lamb, so I won't be disappointed if it does not leave like a lion. A little rain is OK, but I really don't want snow.
