Washington DC Strip Clubs: Laurels and barbs

Laurel: Hats off to the Forest Hills Regional Alliance, which is going full speed ahead on a comprehensive regional plan. The alliance is made up of communities in the Forest Hills School District – Summerhill, Wilmore, South Fork and Ehrenfeld boroughs, and Croyle, Summerhill and Adams townships. The alliance was formed in 2005 in efforts to restrain growing costs while continuing to provide services for residents of the seven municipalities. A study and plan to combine police services stopped short, but an agreement was reached to share services. The alliance also is looking at joint purchases of health care and materials. It’s good government at work.
Barb: Advertising a product is a great way to sell it, when it’s done properly. But during Thunder in the Valley last weekend, several motorcycles with young women on the back holding signs advertising a topless bar made at least a couple of trips over downtown streets. There was nothing wrong with that as far as we could see. The problem was when the women tossed handbills into the air and onto the streets. As if there wasn’t already enough litter and garbage to clean up.
