As our babies grow they know that their path has likely been walked by a Frontenac Friend before. A compass handed down from a prior generation, and a safety net built by decades and decades of love.

Heritage Hall does more than remind our children where they come from. It reminds them who they can be, and that no matter how much they grow, Frontenac will ALWAYS be there for them

There's so much I want to say about the new library, but for now just a quick story from the official opening.

The ribbon cutting tonight was amazing, but it was one of our youngest Frontenac Friends that stole the show, and reminded me yet again why I love this town.

Frontenac Friends, today by complete chance, I took one of those photos that unexpectedly means a lot to me.

Soon our new library will formally welcome the public. Like all Frontenac projects, the public have been sneaking quietly in for months when library director Seth Nutt waves them over the barricade to check it out every chance he gets.

I've known and respected Seth for many years, but it's his mother who I adored first. Lisa is such a treasure, even among Frontenac women. As strong as she is gentle, as no nonsense as she is forgiving, Lisa is the kind of person most people want to be. Frontenac has always had those kinds of women and I look up to many of them. Vicki Haden, Sunny Zafuta, Kay Gobl, Sally Neville, Linda Grilz, all come to mind, and many many more.
