Doing a quick check of Huntington,
INDIANA here's a few money saving services that could be cut.
- 'FREE' Head Lice Services (I'm series)
- 'FREE Pregnancy Testing (go to CVS and spend the $2.00)
- 'FREE' Spring Clean-up (charge a Fee for Big Items)
- 'FREE' Childhood Blood Lead Level Testing (go to a Dr)
- Child Support ATM's (costs money for these)
- Mother/Son Dance
- National Weather Service Winter Weather Awareness Week
(Hint -- Winter Is Coming)
And not to get too radical but is "Balloon Fest" really necessary?
