3. Keep those hands washed!! The swine flu is creeping into the Carolinas, and although it does not seem to be as bad as the name makes it sound, it doesn't hurt to be careful. Click here to read the blog we ran from Dr. Satterwhite on this issue.

4. The Dixie Classic Fair runs through the remainder of this week. You’ve got to take the fam! It is so much fun! Click here for Katie's tips on taking your family to the fair.

5. You have one week left to sign your 7-14 year old up for Crazy Running! Click here to read the details.

6. We’ve added a few more sponsors to our Birthday Party Directory. Look to your right at that cute green button that says “Birthday Party Directory”! Click on it and have fun planning your next child’s birthday!

7. This is Breast Cancer Awareness month. Check out this blog from Charlotte Smarty Pants to find out what you need to know about mammograms.

8. And last, but not least, the Creative Containers Sale (Buckhead Betties Manufacturers Sale) starts on the 15th. Mark your calendar and stay tuned for specific dates and times - we will run a Smarty Alert next week. Here is our blog from the spring, which has some great tips.

Have a great week, and Happy Fall Ya’ll!

The flu is in full-effect at my son's preschool. At least we can all get it now and hopefully be healthy for the holidays, right? :D

Can we know ahead of time what time the Creative Containers sale starts? That way I can plan accordingly since it starts next Thursday and you usually post weekend events on Wednesday? Thanks

I wanted to add a little something to the list of "Things to know this week." Carolina Burgers & BBQ located at 115 W. John St. Matthews NC is having their first fall party for children. It is the Carolina Harvest Hoot. The Carolina Harvest Hoot is October
17th from 11-2pm. Bring your children dressed in their costumes, and let them enjoy fall with fall activities, bouncy house, and a treat bag! If you have any questions please email tara@providencebrands.com
