Thank you to all the city officials and tennis community members who joined us for the grand opening of the new Warwood tennis courts! Courts are located past Warwood School along Wheeling Heritage Trail. They will be open daily until 11:00 p.m. and have special energy-saving LED lights that can be activated for one hour with the push of a button.

In honor of John Corbett's new movie premiering tonight at The Highlands, take a look at "A New Wheeling," the video he narrated for us!

Wheeling native John Corbett will premiere his new movie [All Saints Movie] at The Highlands Marquee Cinemas this weekend!
