Fall has finally made her appearance here in Riverside which means Halloween is just around the corner and the local festivities kick off next week. 

Riverside Parks and Recreation will be hosting their annual Howl-O-Ween event on Wednesday, October 23rd starting at 6 pm at the Water Tower. The event kicks off with the lighting of the Water Tower and is followed by a costume parade over to Riverside Township Hall where there are typically games and prizes for the kids. If you haven't been before, it's a great community event that the kids really enjoy.

Halloween itself falls on the following Thursday this year and trick-or-treating hours are from 3 pm to 7 pm in Riverside. Let's hope the weather cooperates and gives us a good night for trick or treating.

I hope to see you and your families out and about in Riverside. Happy Halloween!

While a fresh coat of paint might be a good start to liven up your living space, it's a far cry from the way a professional interior designer can not only transform the aesthetics of your space but also the way your family uses it.

My guest today is Aimee Sahlas. Aimee is the owner of Style Design Sahlas, an interior design and consulting firm located right here in Riverside.

In our conversation, we discuss Aimee's return to Riverside after growing up here in town, how she's successfully combined her construction background and love of design into her current business, and how the people who are there for you no matter what make Riverside such a special place to live.

Without further ado, here's my conversation with our neighbor, Aimee Sahlas.

While Riverside's history and charm is easy to see, it takes a special business owner to see the unique potential that our small village in the forest offers. Luck for us, our guest today saw that potential when he decided to branch out on his own in Riverside.

My guest today is Joel Alejandro. Joel is the owner of Mago's Styling Cave, a new barber shop located right here in downtown Riverside.

In our conversation, we discuss Joel's start in and passion for barbering, how commuting through Riverside led to Joel opening his barber shop here, and how Riverside's strong sense of community has already made him feel welcome in our little village.

I really enjoyed learning more about Joel's vision for his barber shop in Riverside and I think you will too. ​
