Before we begin the calendar a few words from a friend…
This is the last time I will be ‘blasting’ out to you. Kendra Milligan of the Grant County Health Council will take over from now on. Please put her address in your books, and notify her of any of your special events: healthcouncilgc@gmail.com
It has been a total pleasure doing this the past many years, because there are so many talented people out there who are devoted to their community. My thanks has always been your getting out of your house into the public space – for a meeting, a cultural event, or anything else. Every time we get together in the public sphere makes it a better place for all of us to live. This has been my guiding philosophy.
I will miss every one of you, and I hope to see you ‘around town’ before I move in early January. In the meantime, have a wonderful holiday season and don’t forget to support your community every way you can.
Well said and Bon Voyage!
