The Housing Stock Survey is complete, and now it’s time to talk about what comes next! Join us to review the survey results and help set housing goals for our communities at Let's Talk Housing: Community Meeting (Canton, Cuba & Lewistown)

At the meeting, you’ll:
🔎 See the current state of housing in our communities
👉 Share your ideas on what types of housing we need (affordable, senior, workforce, etc.)

✍️ Help guide priorities for investment, revitalization, and future planning

Housing affects jobs, local businesses, and the overall quality of life. Your input will directly shape the next steps for our communities—don’t miss this chance to make a difference!

I visited a car show/community gathering in Carlinville yesterday. Part of the event to include folks was a sidewalk chalk art contest (?). Spots were mapped out and numbered. Sections were divided by age groups. I assume winners chosen from each age group. Does anyone have an interest in organizing something similar for the Masters Day events being planned?????🤗

Lewistown Area Chamber of Commerce Meeting today at noon at Countryside! We're talking about plans for Edgar Lee Masters celebration on Saturday, August 23rd.

We have quite a bit planned, so we need HELP with cemetery reading, art contest set up and judging, and a antique tractor and car show.

I think we're going to be talking about the best time to meet and changing up officers today, too (don't let that scare you!)

See you at noon. 😉
