Our Community From Past to Present
Many building have changed since your parents
were children. The library they once used is not
the library we use today. The post office they
once sent their mail to is no longer in service.
Computers and other technology have helped our
community work faster with less energy. Our
towns have gown with hundreds of more people
since your parents were little. The buildings
back then would not be big enough for all of us
today.
