This Week Creve Coeur Gets Ready For Tax-Free Shopping, School And More

Creve Coeur Patch will feature this week stories about Creve Coeur's tax-free shopping holiday, an innovative approach to education and the 2nd installment of our new CEO Series.

The excessive heat warning has been extended yet again. Have you had enough of summer at this point?

In spite of the killer temperatures, life in our city goes on starting today with a preview story about the tax-free shopping holiday in Creve Coeur. Today you will also read about a trip to China and the newly-installed turf in the Parkway stadiums.

With the first day of school just around the corner, on Tuesday we will provide you with the back-to-school lists for area schools. Speaking of education, be sure to read the story about a new approach to helping at-risk students. And as usual on Tuesdays, check out the Police Blotter.

On Wednesday, learn how to save a few bucks with our weekly Frugal Family column, which focuses on back-to-school finds, and read our new column on garage sales. Also, we will feature another outstanding local child in Whiz Kid.

Look to Thursday for your weekend planner and the second installment in our new CEO Series.

On Friday, we bring you Who’s Hiring, to help you find a job, along with a few other stories about Creve Coeur.

Reminder: There is no Creve Coeur Planning and Zoning Commission meeting this week.
