It’s time to take out old Earth, Wind & Fire records because it’s the (sort of) official day of dancing in September. Did you remember, tonight will be the 21st night of September? Clouds are in today’s forecast, but maybe we can change that by chasing the clouds away with our hearts ringing and souls singing.
Before you go dancing the night away, here are five things to know in Montgomery County:
1. Democratic Gubernatorial Candidates Forum: Montgomery Community Media is partnering with Montgomery County Renters Alliance tonight from 6 to 8:30 p.m. to host a Democratic gubernatorial candidates forum. The forum will be streamed live on the MCM’s YouTube channel.
