The Regatta Saga, Temple Tours & How Airplanes Help Raccoons
Description
If you’ve ever wanted to visit a Mormon temple before it’s closed to the public, now is your chance! A new temple just opened in Cranberry and guests can get a glimpse inside for a limited time. Host Megan Harris and producer Sophia Lo explain why this kind of access is so rare. Plus, they discuss what to do if a low-flying plane drops some treats in your neighborhood (TLDR: steer clear, they’re rabies vaccines for racoons!) and predict when and whether the Three Rivers Regatta could make a triumphant return.
We always cite our sources:
- It’s not clear whether former President Donald Trump meant to say North Carolina when he was with supporters in Wilkes-Barre.
- Three Rivers Regatta leadership is shooting for a 2025 return — without help from an unresponsive pizza shop. Here’s a KDKA clip about an injury in the Red Bull Flugtag.
- A new Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints temple in Cranberry is open for public tours for a limited-time.
- This is the second LDS temple in Pennsylvania, and the temple will serve around 29,000 people.
- Allegheny County’s leaving out 300,000 rabies vaccines for raccoons. If you spot any bait, make sure you know what to do so your kids and pets don’t go poking at it.
