Pitchers and catchers have reported to spring training in Florida, and the weather here isn’t too shabby either. Friday’s temperature will be a balmy 59, under mostly sunny skies. Get out and enjoy it while you can. Tuesday's forecast has a 30 percent chance of? Guess what? Snow.

4. Want to help our troops overseas? The Glen Cove Public Library is hosting “Any Soldier Program” Saturday at 11 a.m. Items and letters will be gathered and sent to soldiers serving in Iraq and Afghanistan. Volunteers are needed to organize the donations, which are put into boxes and brought to the Post Office. Volunteers can earn community service credit. There is no fee to participate but donations would be appreciated.
5. Monday, Feb. 21, is President’s Day. For most school-aged boys and girls, that means the start of winter vacation!
