Fourth Grade Spring Program

“The Sasquatch School Scenario,” an original skit written by some of Central School’s fourth-grade students, was performed as part of the fourth-grade’s spring program at Gary Dickinson Performing Arts Center on May 7. The program, under the direction of vocal music instructor Dan Venner, included songs sung by the students, as well as performances with recorders and ukuleles. The story centers around Bigfoot, who is noticed by other students waiting for the school bus on the first day of school. Although different — much more hairier than the others — he is soon welcomed by the other students and they all become friends. The Central School Stingers, a choir comprised of fourth- and fifth-grade students, also performed. Constitution-Tribune Photos by Catherine Stortz Ripley

Snowstorm May 2-3, 2013

A winter storm produced a record-setting snowfall — an official 4.8 inches of snow — for May 2 and 3 and wreaked havoc across the Livingston County area. Power was severed to the entire Chillicothe Municipal Utilities system due to storm-related problems encountered by the city's power provider. Power was out for much of the morning in the entire city as well as surrounding communities. Farmers Electric Cooperative, which serves customers in nine counties, reported 24 broken utility poles within its system and 1,100 customers without power. Only one other time has there been measurable snowfall in this area during May, according to records with the National Weather Service. The NWS reported that the only measurable snow on record to have ever fallen in May came in 1907. According to the May 3, 1907, edition of The Chillicothe Constitution, an excess of 3 inches fell in Chillicothe during that storm which spanned May 2 and May 3, 1907.
