The Arbutus Firecracker 10K race is known for the residents of Arbutus providing water along the 6.2 mile course, but this year’s race on the Fourth of July got an unexpected invasion of water when a water main break erupted on the course at Francis Avenue in front of the 7-Eleven.

They also brought along a whole bunch of blue jeans and other cold-weather pants needed by homeless men.

Columbia Ice Rink home to variety of skaters

The Columbia Association's ice rink in the Oakland Mills Village Center smells like popcorn and wet wool on a recent Saturday. In the rink, pop songs play as skaters of varying ages and abilities glide counter-clockwise along the perimeter. Some confidently weave between the slower skaters, while others, ankles wobbly, lean on blue metal frames for support. Some wear shorts and T-shirts, others are bundled in winter jackets, hats and scarves.
