#1 – From DAILY304 – In this episode of Innovators and Entrepreneurs, we learn about the exciting sport of FlingGolf with Jonathan Bellingham. He’s a passionate ambassador of the sport and tells us why West Virginia is a great place to try it out.
FlingGolf is similar to golf, but instead of hitting a golf ball with a club, you use a FlingStick thrower to launch the ball toward the hole. The FlingStick also acts as your putter, so you don’t have to carry around a bunch of clubs.

#3 – From REDP.ORG –The RED region, which includes Wheeling, West Virginia and the Ohio Valley, offers a quality of living equal to many larger cities at a fraction of the cost. In fact, it’s possible to have the advantages of both small-town and big-city amenities.
The area is abundant in distinguished educational institutions, world-class medical facilities, and ethnic and cultural diversity. Wheeling’s low cost of living and short commutes combine to create one of the most livable areas in America.
When you add the natural beauty and wonder, breathtaking vistas in both urban and rural communities, an abundance of nightlife, cultural districts, sports and recreation, you can see why the RED area is such a desirable place to live and work.
