What's The Word This Week?

All Things Macaroni...That's What!

By Amanda Chapman, Publisher of the Winchester Macaroni Kid August 23, 2017

Hopefully your family is back on a schedule and things are progressing smoothly as the start of the school year gets underway. The days always seem to go so much quicker once the kiddos are in school. Unfortunately, so do the evenings. I feel like all we do is run after school, whether it’s running to soccer practice or getting in some last minute pool time, and then it’s dinner time, homework time, shower time, pack lunches time, and finally, bed time! Whew! I get tired just thinking of our crazy evening schedule! Hopefully, amid all of the craziness, you and your family are still finding time to enjoy some of the fun and exciting things that are offered in our great community because even though our lives are busy and hectic, we have to remind ourselves to have some fun and enjoy this time with our kids, because before you know it, they will be going off to college!




I have started compiling an Independent Consultant/Home Business Guide that will be featured on our website and I am looking for people who would like to advertise their business!  The listings will stay in the guide for one year for a one-time fee of $25.00.  The listings will include a photo/logo, website, email, phone…whatever information you want to be listed in the guide to promote your business.  I will be breaking the guide down by county…Frederick, Clarke, Warren, and Shenandoah…and there will only be one consultant per company per county.   I have a lot of spots already filled, but I still have lots of room for anybody that is interested.  If you are interested, please email me so we can get you started.  The guide will go live the first of September.
