As a business reporter, I write about small businesses opening and closing, manufacturing, food and drink, labor issues and economic data. I particularly love writing about the impact of state and federal policy on local businesses. I also do some education reporting, covering colleges in southeastern Connecticut and regional K-12 issues.

So, this is my last quarterly commentary as President of NAPA!
As I was trying to figure out what I was going to write this quarter, I had to reflect on this year as President. I have to say before I joined the Leadership Council (LC) in 2016, I had no idea what they did. Who were these mystery people that always sat in the front at Summit and seemed to have a pulse on everything NAPA?
You may not realize all the work the leadership council does, so I would like to take this opportunity to not only thank and acknowledge all the hard work of the group, but to tell you what all we did and worked on over the last year. Plus, we are also always looking for bright, outgoing people who don’t mind spending their own valuable time for a good cause, so if you are ever interested in being part of the PC, please let a current member know! It is a labor of love.

Over three years ago, fourth-grader Lily Parker approached the Wadena City Council with a request to keep chickens in the city limits.
At the time, she found it was a no-no.
But Lily planted a seed that day that has finally bloomed into something she believes will be a positive for the town. A recent ordinance change allows her and most other residents to now have up to six hen chickens in the city.
