Business Spotlight: Allo Fiber

ALLO has grown community by community, building infrastructure and creating new jobs to support their service in each. Unlike their competitors ALLO is committed to ubiquitous builds–or systems that reach every neighborhood, complete with service brought all the way up to the home. They don’t just cherry-pick streets based on property values, and they make sure no additional hook-up installation is required. Plus, if you call support, it might just be a neighbor or community member you recognize ready to answer your questions. These policies and the additional investment they require are the living embodiment of the company’s core values.

LINC Library Innovation Center NOW OPEN!

LINC, Library Innovation Center, has books and quite a few DVDs, probably more than any video rental store, if any of those are left. But saying LINC has books and movies is like saying our solar system has our moon. Matthew Hortt, the Executive Director for the High Plains district, calls it an “activity hub” instead of a library. The library is really just part of it.

Local Spotlight: The Community Grief Center

While the Community Grief Center is not a crisis or counseling center, they offer free, specialized grief support programs based on Dr. Alan Wolfelt's "companioning model" for people of all ages who are grieving the death of a loved one. Their facilitated groups, overseen by a licensed professional counselor, bring people who have experienced a similar loss together to find hope and healing through connection.

Since the upcoming Dia De Los Muertos holiday is a communal celebration to commemorate loved ones who have passed, the Community Grief Center is partnering with us this year to honor the holiday. At our FREE Community Celebration on 11/2 (5-7pm) at Millennium Event Center, the Community Grief Center will be sharing about their programs and leading some creative activities.
