Sometimes it is fun to look back and see what we have accomplished! This was the wall from our 2023 Strategic Planning session. When I look at this wall, I see things like affordable housing, a wrestling program, leadership development, Industrial Park, childcare, events...

In 3 years, our community has done a lot and that's something to be excited about! What is something that stands out to you that has improved in the past 3 years?

📱 What if finding community information was simple?

No more searching multiple pages to find events, updates, businesses, or announcements.

Something new is being built to help bring our community together in a more connected and collaborative way. 👀

And we think it’s going to make a big difference for residents, organizations, and visitors alike.
