Think Tank 

There were many wonderful ideas and valid points brought up tonight at the Comprehensive Plan workshop at Boulevard Elementary School. Although I've got to say the thing that resonated the most with me is that I was in the room with a group of other individuals that are also passionate about Gloversville. Together we have a wealth of knowledge that should be utilized more often.

Those who want to see progress made in Gloversville need to come together on a regular basis and discuss. Discuss what each individual is doing to bring about change, what their affiliated organization or business is doing and how others can incorporate those ideas into their own community development projects. How can our organizations work together on projects, events and marketing. Our community involvement is there, but it is diluted. We need to come together as a unit and work on the future. I've brought this up before, but I'd really like to see some of those community advocates sit down and just shoot the breeze every so often over coffee. I can only imagine all that we could share with each other!
