Weigh In On the Community Vision!

October 29th, 2007 by Lori Rothstein

On Saturday, October 27, over 60 community members worked together to create vision for the future of our community. Looking 10-15 years out, this is what we came up with:

New York Mills is a special community that has developed a unique economy which encompasses culture and arts, outdoor recreation, and the tradition of agriculture. Farmers markets and buying local provide an opportunity to support our young entrepreneurs, our neighbors, and in turn sustain our community and ourselves. New York Mills is a welcoming place for everyone from the young to the young at heart.

Our heritage of cooperation is strong in our collective spirit. Our traditional values nurture strong volunteerism. The involvement of youth is seen in every aspect of the community. We have a collaborative, close-knit and supportive community culture that is underpinned by visionary leadership.

Share your thoughts with us!

1. Take a survey. It is only 7 questions and will help us reach the 15% benchmark:

Together we can make a difference!
