I'm posting a few of the community blogs as well as other success stories from this program. If you're a community that's in the Horizons program http://montana.communityblogs.us/ , please update your blog so that more can hear about your current efforts. (This is a great way to help those who used to live in your community or think they might want to raise the possibility that they will.)
Here's a bit about Big Timber http://bigtimber.communityblogs.us/
The Horizon Community Development Group has had several meetings concerning the issue of how to keep needed services open in Big Timber and getting these entities together under one organization. The first meeting netted a creative solution’s team which has put together a proposal for an organization; and a temporary Thrift Store Board which was responded to the emergency need of keeping the store open. In a meeting today, the creative solutions team proposed that the Commodities Program (food distribution program for qualifying senior citizens) the Food Bank and the Thrift Store be organized as HELP LINK with the mission of “Community Helping Community.” They presented a vision and goals and suggested that the organization be placed under The Sweet Grass Health and Wellness Foundation umbrella.
