This is a request from one of my readers who wanted me to blog about an event that is important to her. That’s what the Hamilton/Stoney Creek Community Blog is all about. We’re not just caring about our community, but other communities as well whose problems will eventually be our problem. Keep those emails coming about story ideas for the Hamilton/Stoney Creek Community Blog.
