Spectators even ventured close enough to feel the heat from the burners as the balloons inflated and lifted off, one by one. It looked like a scene from a movie. It’s a scene Lori Hutchinson knows all too well. And yet, every time feels just as magical as the last.

    A night out at the Lied Center for Performing Arts is a popular date idea for Lincoln couples. For Dick and Miriam LeBlanc, it’s no different — except they spend most shows stationed across the aisle from each other, volunteering as ushers. Instead of sitting side by side in the velvet red chairs, the LeBlancs share glances across the aisle, a wave before the lights dim and a ride home together — their own version of a date night. The couple has been ushering at the Lied Center for nine years now.

    Inside the Atlanta Community Food Bank’s facility in East Point Friday morning, dozens of volunteers hustled inside to organize piles of water bottles, juice cartons, peanut butter, and cans of soup. On the other side of the building, the beeps from the forklifts echoed throughout the corridors as food bank staff in blue and gray vests packed thousands of boxes of chips, rice and pasta.
