Wrong time for 2030 Cd'A Vision survey
I have listened to three presentations by Steven Ames and I have little disagreement with the end result of visioning that he is marketing. However, I am not clear what it was that he was really selling. It was a polished marketing presentation with Bend, Ore., seemingly the focus. He painted a picture of a community where mutual trust, respect and openness bring members to the same table to share their thoughts openly with an expectation of making a difference. Clearly, that does not describe where I live. I would love to live in such a place. In fact, I would enthusiastically support reasonable and responsible efforts to achieve it.

My turn: 'Gem of the North' needs healing
Once upon a time there was a small city by a lake, a true northern beacon set by a hill; a quaint hamlet surrounded by such beauty it was world renowned! Hearing of its splendor, legions of folks from distant places would find themselves visiting there. These outsiders took notice of more than just the pristine environment, but also of the fine, friendly, hard-working inhabitants. And often, in short order, those visitors would also find themselves relocating to that slower, simpler, throw back in time place. The town and surrounding area saw tremendous growth and prosperity. Some called it “The Gem of the North,” a real modern day Camelot.
