Special Thanks: Thank you to The New Glasgow Women’s Institute for hosting their Annual Meet your Neighbor night in October. It was a great turnout and lots of fun for all ages!  A BIG thank you to Les & Marlene Andrews for tidying up the gardens this fall, taking down signs & plaques and stacking up the picnic tables and benches. Also a special thank you to Brad & Karen Trivers for their work on The Community of New Glasgow’s NEW WEBSITE. Take a look and please feel free to make suggestions as it is a work in progress.
