MEET DARTH: Celina Police Station Dog Trained By K9s For Warriors To Help Reduce Stress Of Officers

"Darth is not a working police dog and cannot accompany the officers on patrol or calls. Rather, he works as an ambassador for the department in the community. He is in training to attend community events, participate in programs for veterans, attend ribbon-cutting events, and visit local fire stations. Officer Quillian wants the community to know him as a friendly therapy dog and not be intimidated by his bigger-than-life personality."

Thank you to Officer Quillin and the Celina Police Department for sharing Darth with our readers!

BUSINESS SPOTLIGHT: Christian Brothers Automotive In Celina Continues To Make A Local Impact In Community

January and the start of a new year invite most people to focus on their health and wellness. If you think about it, regular car maintenance is very similar. Routine oil and fluid changes, tire balancing, and checking the car's alignment are all parts of maintaining a vehicle. Jim explains that the best place to start is to check out your owner's manual. The car's engineers and manufacturer have outlined all that is needed to maintain the health of your vehicle.
Christian Brothers has worked tirelessly to establish themselves as an alternative to the dealer. They offer a 3-year, 36,000-mile extended warranty. They have made the investment in the programs and the tools necessary to diagnose any make or model of car. Their staff is certified by Automotive Service Excellence (ASE), and many are master- and world-class tech certified.

Fortunately, one of our favorite local restaurants has our back as well as our expanding backside. The Forge 1912 not only offers world-class steaks and burgers, but top-notch healthy options without requiring you to sacrifice quality or flavor.
The recipe to successfully deliver on the promise of healthy alternatives that don’t feel like a punishment is fresh ingredients.

BACK HOME IN WESTON, TEXAS

"Do you know that Weston is the oldest city in Collin County? This remarkable town is known for its authentic charm, famous traditions, and rich history.
Weston is over 184 years old with Larkin Adamson credited as naming it after his Missouri hometown. According to the Texas State Historical Association, Weston grew over the next forty years as a stagecoach stop on the way to Dallas. The booming town had over fourteen businesses including hotels, general stores, two churches plus a school. For decades Weston enjoyed popularity, but the creation of railroads built in nearby Celina resulted in an abrupt halt in Weston’s growth."
