The Salisbury High School and Salisbury Middle School mini football camp has returned. This is open to students in grades 6-11 and runs for six weeks (March 8, 15, 22 and April 4, 12, 19). Located at the SHS stadium, this camp will concentrate on individual skills plus the importance of working as a team. For more information, contact Coach Dizenzo at kdizenzo@salisburysd.org.

I have another update on the South Mall. Demolition of the actual Bon Ton building has now begun.

But the news that a new Burlington store will occupy the space of the former Stein Mart has just been released. Also, a restaurant named S & D Soulicious Cousine will join the South Mall. You might recognize the name from the owner’s food truck. Things are looking up for our local little mall.
