Hurricane's Civil War Days will be back on after school board members unanimously approved an agreement to allow the city to hold the event at Hurricane High School. School board members also approved an agreement to allow weapon replicas to be displayed.
The event initially was canceled due to upcoming renovations at Valley Park.
The school board also extended the unpaid suspension of Leah Green, a teacher at Poca Elementary. Green was suspended Dec. 5 for five days without pay.
