Councilor’s Message
Hi Neighbors,
I hope this email finds you well and enjoying the holiday season with family, friends, and loved ones.
The holiday season is here, and it’s wonderful to see the city decorated with holiday cheer! A few weeks ago, my wife and I had a full house for Thanksgiving week with everyone home for the holiday. We enjoyed some shopping downtown, an interesting visit to the Dragon Boat Museum, the Hancock/Adams Common Tree Lighting event, and the Christmas Parade.
We enjoyed decorating the house for the holidays while gathered together in November. We are now looking forward to having everyone home again for the Christmas break, ringing in the new year!
Thank you for signing up for this newsletter. Please feel free to share this with friends and neighbors who may find this information helpful.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
Sincerely,
Walter Hubley
City Councilor Elect, Ward 3

Volunteer Opportunities
For many, the holidays are a time of celebration and joy, but for some, it can be an especially difficult time of year. Whether you are experiencing a challenging time yourself or would like to help others in need, getting out of the house to serve the community can be an uplifting experience. In this newsletter, I am highlighting Interfaith Social Services (ISS). ISS is an organization that offers a wide range of services, providing great opportunities to volunteer. I encourage you to visit their website to learn about their services and volunteer opportunities.
