Welcome to this week’s edition of Community Connections!

The mission of this newsletter is to highlight small businesses, bring people together, and encourage community connections. We do this by publishing articles on the always-free NewsBreak App. If you don't already have it, you can download it by clicking here. By doing so, you'll be supporting the Community Connections newsletter even more! However, you can still read all the articles linked in the newsletter without the app (always for free!).
