Editor:

One of the highlights of the week for us is to get the newspaper. There is always something interesting about news, events and “goings-on” that keep us informed.

The first thing we look for in the paper is the section titled “So You Think You Know the Hill?” We love to see who won the contest the week before, and then start looking for the next photo.

Riding our bicycles and walking around the village gives us the opportunity to see things we might miss in a car.

The prizes are pretty fun, too.

The sponsors have been so generous, and we make sure to recycle our winnings right back into the community to show our appreciation.

What a great place to call home.
