The Mountains are Alive
Summer has arrived! The weather is hot. The mountains are in bloom. Coalwood was spared from the rising waters that flooded Welch on June 12th.
Community Clean Up
Driving into Coalwood was awe-inspiring. The roadways were virtually void of any trash. The CCRA maintains several miles of the roadways into and around Coalwood. Their hard work was noticeable! Thank you CCRA and memb-ers for your diligent work in keeping Coalwood clean!
Coalwood Community Pool
The Coalwood Community Pool was scrapped, painted, filled and is ready for use! Enjoy the summer sun and take a trip down to the pool.
New Menu Item!
The Sterling Drive-In has a new item on the menu- funnel fries. They are well worth the calories!
