As Wildwood contemplated prohibiting feeding wildlife in the city to help curb the deer issue, Town and Country deer management plans were reviewed by the city council.
This week, Wildwood city councilmembers voted down a proposed city ordinance that would have prohibited feeding wildlife, including deer.

Drop off bicycles, no matter the condition, along with bike parts and wheel-based/non-motorized items at Wildwood Town Center Plaza Saturday for a worthwhile cause.
The City of Wildwood is partnering with St. Louis BWorks (BicycleWorks) to collect bicycles and related parts this Saturday between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. The event will take place at Wildwood Town Center Plaza, 221 Plaza Dr. "Any Bicycle! It does not matter what condition it is in," said Gary Crews, Wildwood's superintendent of parks and recreation. Bicycle parts also will be accepted.

The old bikes, or bicycles in need of repair, will be reconditioned or rebuilt by BicycleWorks and eventually are given to deserving children, who cannot afford to purchase a bicycle on their own, but…

Looking for something different for kids to do this fall and winter? Why not consider joining the Hidden Valley Ski Team?
