"Catch the Glow" in Weston MO

Winter can be dreary in Missouri but tonight at Happy Hour the sun peeked in on Weston MO.  When we moved to Weston in 2002 the catchphrase for the town was “Catch the Glow”.  It was old school circa the beginnings of promoting Weston as a tourist destination. A resident wrote a lovely poem with said title and it had stuck.  I think it’s time to bring it back. 

 

 CATCH THE WESTON GLOW

Catch the Weston glow.

For the glow is ev’rywhere

And when you have caught it

You have something you can share

 

Share the hist’ry of the town

Share the events that prove her worth

Share her struggles as she grew 

Share the reasons for her birth

 

Share her efforts to reclaim

Home and buildings from the years

Share the months of restoration

Share the sweat and share the tears

 

Catch the glow and keep glowing

We have much to build upon

Look around and you’ll see

That the glow is “Catching on!”
