A good way for you

mission of revitalizing our historic downtown
neighborhood is to come to one of our monthly
general meetings. We usually meet the
first Thursday of each month although February's
meeting will be on the second Thursday because
the first one is Groundhog Day. We meet at
8 a.m.
at M&M Family Diner, 34
West Main St.
The next meeting is
scheduled for Thursday,
February 9th at 8 a.m.

meeting, contact Sandra Ogle, LTC President, at
