As I pondered what to write about this time, the slew of information<br />
continued to roll into our e-mail inbox -- more golf outings, lots of<br />
Vacation Bible School announcements, a letter from the Food Pantry, a<br />
partnership between North Fayette and Donaldson School, the first<br />
fireworks ever by Findlay for Independence Day, and so, so much<br />
more. The sheer amount of information that is shared by you, the<br />
readers, is overwhelming. And that is good. We are blessed to know<br />
that we are doing our job when so many of you reach out to us to be<br />
your communicator for our neighborhoods.<br />
As we wrap up our 13th year and begin year number 14 in August, I<br />
continue to be thankful for all that our residents, our businesses, and so many others continue<br />
to do to be such an important part of <strong>Allegheny</strong> <strong>West</strong> <strong>Magazine</strong>.<br />
As the continued flow of good news keeps coming, we find ourselves challenged to stay<br />
abreast of everything wonderful that’s happening in our neighborhoods. To help us manage the<br />
continued flow of information, I am pleased to introduce a new member of our team, Doug<br />
Hughey. Doug will assist me with whatever we need to stay on top of things so that we can<br />
continue to share news of the neighborhoods with you. Read more about Doug, below.<br />
So, keep the good news coming! It’s all good.<br />
