Rockville Rundown: Oct. 4

It's the 'freeze frame' edition of 'The Rundown.'

Happy Tuesday, Rockville!

We had a long-overdue visit from an old friend today before the clouds set in late this afternoon.

It looks like the sun will have a more extended stay, beginning tomorrow, with gorgeous weather on tap for the weekend.

Here’s today’s edition of “The Rundown”:

  • Take a “snapshot” of a day in the life of Montgomery County Public Libraries tomorrow. Libraries across Maryland will participate in . Library patrons are encouraged to visit their favorite library, snap a photo and upload it here. Twinbrook and Rockville Memorial libraries will host a special story time.

Twinbrook Swimming Pool (TSP) can hold three public open house days to introduce the pool toRead More perspective members. This year the dates are June 8, July 13 and August 10. The cost is $5 per person. The TSP has a big insurance policy to cover swimmers. Not sure free is appropriate. As a private membership pool, there are regulations that must be followed.

Does either county or city pool offer free trial periods? I don't think so.

If you swim on the 3 open public swim days at the Twinbrook Swimming Pool, you can consider it aRead More trial. Liability insurance does cost money. Entrance of $5 is a real bargain. Members pay to maintain the pool.

I am so sorry this happened to your girls! There is no excuse for the theater personnel notRead More helping. I hope you get an apology from management. Perhaps the city police should have an officer in the area after the last movie.

Yaaaay! Lets put it on the police again. Good thinking the Deb. How about Kate gets her daughter aRead More chaperone. Ask 2 people and then a movie theatre employee and then walk home? That story sounds really fishy. I don't believe the world is in as bad a shape as Kate purports.

I think more facts are necessary here. When you didn't hear from them you didn't go to theater toRead More find them? It is hard to know where blame lies here, not knowing how old these girls are. It sounds like your daughter and god daughter don't have their own phones? No matter my children's age, I make it a point to know the running times of the movies they're at, especially if I am the one who is going to be picking them up. We warn children--especially girls and young women--not to go to strangers for help. We know that of the three girls, the man kidnapped one who was his daughter's friend after giving her a lift.

Looking forward to seeing our Sister City Pinneberg dancers perform. Thank you to all RockvilleRead More families for hosting our German guests and for Karen Rawlins coordinating the dance exchange. Brigitta Mullican
