As we start a new year, many people are sure to have exercise more as one of their New Year’s resolutions.

Lucky for us, the brisk winter weather has not yet arrived. You can enjoy walking, running or biking on the beautiful Ironton Rail Trail and get your resolution in motion.

Surely colder weather will arrive soon. The winter months are a great time to get yourself organized.

Purge your clutter and clean your house - maybe even redecorate. When spring comes, the house will be all tidy, so you can spend more time outside!

Every third Monday of the month, Whitehall Township Public Library holds an open mic/jam night beginning 6:30 p.m.

Entertainers who would like to perform three songs or a 15-minute set are asked to sign up just before 6:30 p.m. Musicians, singers, poets, comedians, actors, writers, storytellers and mimes are encouraged to come out and show off their talents.

If you like being entertained, stop by and be part of the audience.

Jan. 18 is the next scheduled open mic/jam night.
