A late-in-the-month deluge made this August the wettest on record in Dallas-Fort Worth, breaking the previous record of 10.33 inches set in 1915, according to the National Weather Service office in Fort Worth. Dallas received anywhere from 1 inch of rain to nearly 13 inches within 12 hours between Aug. 21 and 22 alone.

University Park installed an underground detention structure in late 2020 to detain about 11 acre-feet of water under the field on the east side of Caruth Park. That equates to just over 3.5 million gallons.

After choosing which city they want to buy in, shoppers see a list

When ordering on Afloat, cus tomers start by opening the app and choosing whether they want to shop in Dallas or Kansas City. With Dallas being the location of Preston’s alma mater, SMU, and Kansas City being where her sons live, it made sense for her to pursue it in both places.

The idea for Afloat came after one of her sons needed an openheart surgery at birth, and she split with her husband just a year lat er. She was an event planner who understood the importance of cel ebrating relationships and connec tions, but after encountering this adversity, she understood it on a more personal level.

Sarah-Allen Preston splits her time between Dallas and Kansas City to run Afloat, a mobile app that connects users with local busi nesses for gifting on demand.

“I wanted to be able to make that outreach and that action of sending the gift much easier for people, and much more enjoy able,” Preston said. “Bringing in the local businesses obviously feels great, so it’s been a really fun

Reducing Furniture Waste in Dallas CouchCycled partners pick up, repair, and resell secondhand pieces

“We started by looking at furniture flip ping, so we purchased furniture on Face book marketplace that we would then clean and repair,” Pennell said. “While that was lucrative, one of the things that we noticed is that it wasn’t actually doing anything to reduce furniture waste.”

In the future, Pennell said he hopes to increase their online marketplace, provide a physical space where people can browse their items (their warehouse in Plano is primari ly used for storage), and expand further into furniture consignment.

The items they were buying would have been purchased and used by someone else, he explained. Getting furniture that would have gone to a landfill took pivoting to a new business model.

Pennell said the ability to help reduce fur niture waste and give back to their community was their motivation for using their sales expe rience in a new way with CouchCycled.

That’s what you get with this haven of architecture, luxury, and leisure located on a generous 1.66 acres along a quiet street in wooded Bluffview.

“She raised the level of intensity in that gym. She played against our starters all season, which helped us tremendously,” said HP head coach Michael Dearman. “She established so much respect with her teammates.”Winford lives in Nevada, a Collin County town about 35 miles northeast of the Park Cities. When she transferred to HP, where her father works as a school counselor, she was ruled ineligible for one year by the District Executive Committee. The UIL upheld that decision on appeal.

Lilly had just five receptions for 30 yards last season. Howev er, he made his mark as a sprinter during track and field season last spring for the Scots. He finished second in the 100 meters at the District 13-5A meet and helped the Scots reach regionals in the 4x100 and 4x200 relays alongside football teammates Jay Cox and Grayson Schrank.

Hooper tackles what he sees as the inherent greed, oversight, and exploitation infecting high er education.“In2009, I started looking at the state’s data, and it was shock ing,” Hooper said, recalling his time with data consulting firm ISI. “I learned that only 23% of college freshmen who earned the Texas Grant came back as sophomores. I called the state and asked if this was right. I asked if they had any plans of doing anything about it, and they said, ‘No. They’re just collecting the data and waiting for someone like me to do something with it.’”

For years, Dan Hooper, a data strategist from Highland Park, has studied this issue while advocating for students and proposed a “smart er way” to help them achieve their academic goals.

The myth that you must spend a ton of money to be successful is eroding, and passing that pres sure onto future generations is a huge failure on the part of high schools, he said.

With ScholarShot, Hooper hopes to change the standards.

“Most of our kids don’t under stand that acceptance into college is no guarantee of completion,” he said. “What it does guarantee is a boatload of student debt, and it’s unnecessary. If they just followed the system, nine out of 10 of those kids would get booted out, but if they fight against the system and realize they could go to an afford able two-year college and transfer

“The relationship between the Women’s Council and the Dallas Arboretum is truly a wonderful partnership,” said Mary Brinegar, president and CEO of the Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Society. “Both groups have high standards and an interest in making sure those visiting from our area and indeed from afar see a garden that is competitive with the finest gar dens in the world, due to classic design and at tention to detail.”

WHETHER YOU’RE INTO CLASSIC OR COOL, PHILADELPHIA DELIVERS

GRAB A CHEESESTEAK HERE

From cheesesteaks to the Constitu tion, this manageable yet magical city has passionate people ready to welcome you. However, there’s still a catch: Planning the perfect trip involves a beautiful balance of old and new.

Stay: Every now and then, a hotel that truly wows even the most seasoned travel er comes along. That is the case with Four Seasons Hotel Philadelphia at Comcast Center. Highlights include a 57th-floor

infinity-edge pool, the gym of all ho tel gyms, food by Michelin-starred chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten, jaw-dropping floral by Jeff Leatham, and, most impor tantly, that old-school hospitality that re minds you that superior customer service is not dead, albeit hard to find. Rooms start at $817 a night, and if you’re looking for a sign to splurge on a hotel, take this as one in shining stage lights. This is not just a place to stay; this is a place to experience.

pleasure can exist simultaneously via food and beverage, wellness, and 34,000 square feet of workspace with office suites. Get to have some fun? Philly adores its sports teams. Pick an in-season pro sport and en joy. Sprinkle in history with the Liberty Bell, Independence Hall, and other sites within America’s “most historic square mile.” And get your culture via a stroll through the Philadelphia Museum of Art, because if you didn’t visit the Rocky statue and run up and down the stairs pretend ing to be in tip-top fighting shape, did you even really visit Philly?

Vegetarian? Check out Vedge, where James Beard-nom inated Chefs Rich Landau and Kate Jacoby make veg etables (not meat substitutes) the star of its plant-based menu. From stuffed avocados to eggplant braciola and spicy dan dan noodles, we dare you to miss meat after dining here.

In the Dallas luxury market, that’s Allie Beth Allman & Associates.

Dallas, TX— Homeowners who are buying, selling, or renovating a residence, often visualize how living spaces, both outside and inside a home, will be used for different occasions. They may imagine a quiet moonlit night on a patio or deck, or a more festive backdrop for gatherings and celebrations. Either way, creating the right lighting can change a home’s mood with the flip of a switch. Adding customized mood light ing in and outside of residences is becoming more de sirable, especially by younger homeowners, according to Richard Lentz, owner of Lentz Landscape Lighting. “Many people want controlled lighting by phone, but it can be expensive and unpredictable.” says Lentz. “We usually recommend you have a strategizing meeting first to determine what you hope to accomplish; then design a custom lighting plan accordingly. We find most residents choose to have a nightly look, but when they entertain outdoors, they bring it up a level.” he added “At Lentz, we design plans homeowners can control, zone by zone, room by room or with a central panel set up; creating lighting “scenes” as simple or as intricate as they want. “, said Richard.
