What was the biggest news story this past week -- either in your community, nationally, or globally?

Due to the ongoing pandemic,<strong> our small community has been forced to cancel its annual festival for the second year in a row. Each spring for 34 years, this two-day event has attracted thousands to our town</strong> and brings much need money to the coffers of area businesses. For residents and town officials alike, the festival is a much anticipated social highlight, as well as an opportunity to accentuate the municipality’s positive points.<strong> Disgruntlement prevails now, but there is no doubt that this decision--however disappointing--was the wisest course of action.</strong>
