In 2012, Morgantown’s Santa, Mike Hopkins, grace

In 2012, Morgantown’s Santa, Mike Hopkins, graced the cover of Morgantown magazine, surrounded by children. We were sad to learn of his recent passing and send his family our condolences. In honor of Mike and all the joy he spread in the community, we are sharing the article that ran in our Dec/Jan 2012 issue. We like to imagine he is now flying in an open-air sleigh being pulled by magical reindeer.

It’s not every day you see giant hot air balloon

It’s not every day you see giant hot air balloons hovering over your hometown—but thanks to Balloons Over Morgantown (@balloonsovermorgantown), you can glimpse them at least once a year in Morgantown. This year’s event is this weekend and, as long as wind and weather cooperate, balloons are scheduled to launch five times throughout the three-day event. It kicks off tonight, Thursday, September 29, with NightGlow. To learn more, we talked with Sarah Claydon, communications manager at University Toyota—one of the main organizations sponsoring the event. Click the link in bio!

WVU Medicine Children's (@wvumedicinechildrens) scores a touchdown with its sports-themed Hostetler Family Resource Center! 🏈 When it comes to tackling a situation and carrying the ball across the goal line, Jeff Hostetler knows how to play the game. When the legendary Mountaineer quarterback and his wife, Vicky, founded the Hoss Foundation in 1991 to help children and families who found themselves enduring hardships due to traumatic injury, illness, or financial crisis, they knew firsthand the challenges parents and children face when battling health issues. They also knew that no one should be sidelined. Learn more on our website, link in bio!
