For the 2 years that I’ve lived in Churchill Club, there’s been a problem with cars speeding down Bluegrass Parkway.  We’re not talking 3-5mph over the limit in most cases either.  No, from my office window I see folks cruising easily 35-40mph during the 6-8am and 4-6pm times, and this is a 25mph zone. So I’ve tried the good citizen efforts of contacting the Oswego Police Department, and they have been kind...

But I did get a $5 off coupon in the mail from Petco.  What does that say about PetsMart’s [not] Grand Opening?  Unlike their neighbor Aldi, they seem to be keeping this on the down low.  Not good.  Because they have to compete against (going west to east) WalMart, Meijer, Dominick’s, Target, and Petco.

 TheOswegoPost appreciates how our village is growing, and want to share with our readers information on new businesses.  So, if you know of or represent a new restaurant, store, salon or or coffee shop we want to know about it!  We’ve already heard from Pig City Barbeque, and hope to settle in for a nice plate or ribs or pulled pork next week.  And Aldi’s has quickly become our first choice for quality, inexpensive...

Did you miss it? ALDI opened Thursday in Oswego, at the corner of U.S. 34 and Fifth St., across from Wal Mart.  With over 1,400 items, it offers another alternative to the “big box” stores lining the adjoining street.  ALDI is a unique store, where it looks to save customers money by encouraging the use of recyclable bags and smarter shopping cart use by charging for bags and instituting a 25-cent deposit...

The Village of Oswego and Oswego Cultural Arts Commission are co-hosting this summer’s movies series at Village Green Park.

Junior forward Rayvonte Rice poured in 21 points, including the two winning free throws, to lead top-ranked Champaign Centennial 61-59 over Oswego during Saturday’s Boys Class 3A championship game at Carver Arena. Champaign started strong and led 36-28 at the half. Oswego hung around the entire game and took its first lead 52-51 late in the fourth quarter. The teams traded 3-pointers before the deciding final few...

Oswego East suffered a huge loss Friday night to the Class 8A champs Naperville North team, 55-13.
