Who’s NOT planning a BBQ this weekend? Here are new ideas for keeping your costs down. Sponsored by Home Depot.
Here at Patch, we like to be thrifty, so we talked to two barbecue experts and uncovered some really good ideas to help you save money on your next outdoor party.

There will still be a number of summer programs, such as theater and math.
In the wake of losing about $600,000 due to federal budget cuts, Dr. Mark Toback said the district will not be running a full day program this year.
