Leash law gets another look

One of the most discussed topics in Boulder City this past year has surrounded when, where and if dogs can be off-leash.

New faces at BCPD

Monday morning, three new Boulder City police officers were sworn in during a ceremony that featured city staff, family and fellow officers. Above, Chief Tim Shea swears in, from left, Rayman Bateman, Zach Martin and Hi’ilani Waiwaiole. Shea noted that it’s very rare for them to swear in more than one new officer at a time. Two more future officers will be attending the police academy next month. The new officers help fill vacancies left by retiring officers or those who have moved onto other agencies. Left, Mayor Joe Hardy gave the three new officers an impromptu group hug during the ceremony.

The Mouse, his House and me

I’m about to say something that divides many in terms of their opinion. More than should a sandwich be cut horizontally or the diagonal cross-cut. Even more than the question of Coke vs. Pepsi and even more controversial than whether a tomato is a fruit or vegetable.

Eagles keep up their winning ways on volleyball court

Boulder City High School boys volleyball continues to succeed against higher classes of opponents, knocking off 4A Somerset Sky Pointe 3-2 on April 8.

Late-inning effort lifts Lady Eagles

A young team that is showing progression, Boulder City High School softball showed resiliency this past week, capping off a come-from-behind victory over rival Virgin Valley on April 9, while defeating 4A Silverado on April 8.

Boys volleyball wins first league game

Boulder City High School started league play with a victory, defeating The Meadows 3-0 on April 1.

From Garden to Grave

Last week, the Christian Center Church hosted four showings of Garden to Grave: Live Stations of the Cross. Pastor Deborah Downs said the Stations of the Cross “are a contemplative practice of walking the way of suffering with Jesus. If one were to visit the city of Jerusalem, they would discover all 14 stations on what is called the Via Dolorosa – The Sorrowful Way – a path from Pilate’s court to Golgotha to the tomb.”
