Houghton County is fortunate to own a 2-block area west of the County Courthouse, and by brainstorming and working together I believe we can decide THE BEST USE of that land. Voters defeated of the county's proposal to build a justice center, but the problems of overcrowding still exist, and it is important that citizens work to find solutions. Copper Country folks are creative and hard-working, and there is no limit to what we can do together.
But first we need a dream to unite us, and the opportunity that this tract of land, which I would like to call "The County Common", is a godsend.
Sunday afternoon, Nov. 14th, at 3:00 p.m., at First United Methodist Church, 401 Quincy St., Hancock, anyone interested in sharing ideas is welcome to come to a meeting wherein everyone will have a chance to make suggestions. This will truly be a grassroots effort, as we will be talking about land and its potential to heal and nurture our community.
If you want more information, you can call me at 482-4696.
Sincerely, Carolyn (Candy) Peterson
