Ferris: Get back to the basics this spring

I don’t know about anyone else, but ever since the Expo Committee decided to raffle a fabulous Weber Grill at the Health, Home & Business Expo, I have had a burning fever for spring! Bring on everything that reminds me of warmer, sunshiny days. The sight of people walking hand in hand down the sidewalks, the smell in the air, and upbeat rhythm in their step, I welcome it all!

Make plans early this year to get involved with the events your community holds and the businesses that offer their services and products to you. I suggest you rediscover the place you call home and be reintroduced to an idea called 3/50 Project.

The 3/50 Project is getting “back to the basics” and saving the brick and mortars our nation is built on.
