COVINGTON, Ky. - This weekend, the list of things to do in #LoveTheCov is brought to you by the letter “B.”   (OK, so we ripped off Sesame Street to find a common theme this week. It works.)   There’s Big Head Todd & the Monsters at the Madison Theater. Bodybuilding and big guns (aka big biceps) at the Convention Center. There’s Braxton’s Breeders’...

COVINGTON, Ky. - If you’re not in full autumn celebration mode, you will be come Monday.   From Halloween parties (seemingly everywhere) to harvest festivals, #LoveTheCov is rocking October and early November traditions this weekend.

COVINGTON, Ky. - It's getting colder outside, obviously, so it's time in Covington to do some cool weather things.   Halloween parties, trail clearing, neighborhood cook-outs, painting pumpkins. Those things. And of course the weekly Covington Farmers Market is offering fall kinds of crops.   Of you could learn how to fuse glass to make a sun-catcher, or mount a black scorpion for displa...

COVINGTON, Ky. - We tried to find a theme for a weekend that features a cornhole tournament ... a tree planting ... a scary movie in a cemetery ... a huge show-and-tell event for public works and public safety trucks ... roller derby ... a candidates' forum ... a Masquerade pub crawl ... and a stage reading of a local playwright's work.   But then we just gave up.   Suffice to say that t...

Volunteers planted almost 50 trees along sidewalks in the Austinburg neighborhood in April. Now it's Latonia's turn. COVINGTON, Ky. - A dozen reasons to help plant streetscape trees in Latonia on Saturday:  You like to dig in dirt.  You need exercise.  Moonrise doughnuts and Bean Haus coffee.  Mother Earth needs you.  Your neighbors are cool - ...

COVINGTON, Ky. - There’s an obvious reason that the City of Covington’s “Touch a Truck” open house is being held on the vast parking lot of the Latonia Shopping Center.   Few other places in the City - if any - would be large enough.   The event, to be held from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. this Saturday, will feature public safety and public service vehicles of all shapes, ...

COVINGTON, Ky. - Saturday in particular presents some tough choices in #LovetheCov this weekend.   Not whether to stay home or go out (that's an easy one) but where to go?   The fantastic DevouGrass ... or the Farmer's Market ... or some arts classes for personal fulfillment ... or a poignant reading by the amazing Richard Taylor?   Later that evening, do you wat...
