HIGHLIGHTS FROM THIS MONTH

FROM DENISE: The holidays are upon us! It is so hard to believe how fast this year has gone by. I love to nd new activities to do around the city as well as attend some of the annual ones, such as the annual lighting of the Georgetown Square. Are you new to Georgetown? Maybe you’ve been here a while but aren’t quite sure what to do this time of year? Take a look at our Holiday To-Do List (see Page 8) and explore a new activity this year. Denise Seiler, GENERAL MANAGER

FROM CLAIRE: Thanksgiving has always been my favorite time of year. I love when the colors of the leaves on the trees begin to change; I love the food; and most importantly, I love the time spent with family. I even got married around Thanksgiving for these reasons. As this special time of year approaches, we prepared a holiday shopping guide (see Page 23) as well as a front-page story on how shopping local benets businesses and cities. Claire Shoop, EDITOR

CORRECTION: Volume 16, Issue 2 Georgetown Professional Massage and Wellness, owned by Deziree Simms, is located at 4887 Williams Drive, Georgetown.

"I support this paper because the information it provides is so valuable and lacking these days. The unbiased articles help my understanding about my community. I think a paper like CI should exist for all regions in Texas." TABITHA L.

"When CI Patrons give, it helps fund our hyperlocal reporting and hire more journalists to take CI coverage to the next level. Community giving overall strengthens our opportunity to be a light in our industry." JOE WARNER
