Welcome back to What’s Going on in Allegany County?! I want to take a moment and say thank you for all the support this idea has gotten, and all the amazing feedback subscribers have offered! As the news letter and bulletin grow I will be looking for a few extra people to help me gather the information and post to the bulletin, if you would be interested in helping maintain WGAC please email me at [email protected].

Thank you, Heather Gill
