1. Ray Rickman – a rare-book dealer – will be in town tonight to hold "Value of the Book" lecture and workshop. (Imagine "Antiques Roadshow," but with books.) Bring your rare first-edition copies, priceless signed books, etc. to the event (Wednesday, Oct. 3 at 6:30 p.m. at the North Kingstown Free Library) to find out what it's worth. Please register for this event here.
2. Wide World of Indoor Sports its holding its grand opening ceremony today. (The indoor sports facility is also offering free practice space to sports teams displaced by the mosquito "smart scheduling.") Welcome to the neighborhood, WWIS!
3. The first of two public workshops for the Route 2/102 visioning group is tomorrow night. The visioning group is looking for public input on what residents, business owners and interested parties would like to see in that area. Thursday's workshop starts at 7 p.m. at Wickford Middle School. (The second will be Oct. 15, also at WMS.)
