Fall is in the air. Are you ready? I'm not. I like summer and early fall. But the leaves are falling as I type this. And winter cannot be far behind.

Several things are on the table for discussion. On Wednesday, October 8th the City held a special council meeting to discuss the Needs Assessment Study of Memorial Hall. It is a great old building that really doesn't meet anyone's needs at the present time. There were approximately thirty people present including City Council members. Howard R. Green Company representatives gave a presentation and fielded questions. You can view the powerpoint presentation at the following link:

Corner Drug is now Pamida Drug. And shortly, Cooke Drug will join the merger. It is a time of change in the downtown. A question was presented to several of us this morning, "What do you want the downtown to look like in ten years?" How would you answer this question? What are you willing to do to see that your vision happens? In ten years will you sit back and say, "I wish that we had done something ten years ago."? Now is the time to make our city a vibrant and lively place for the future. It is a time for you to join forces with several organizations that are working toward this goal. Volunteers are always needed and welcomed warmly. Help make Sigourney a destination.

Until next time,

Pat
