Collaboration

Partnership, teamwork, cooperation, collaboration?call it what you want, but those dyna?mic commitments have reached a new level of achievement with the announcement that Hills?boro should be benefiting in the near future from the availability of a youth center and modern bowling facility.

Cooperative efforts are not unusual in Hills?boro, but the mix of city leadership, private college, economic development, local business, private donors and citizen input may be unprecedented. Perhaps such broad-based participation is exactly what is required to establish and then maintain an effective community youth center over the long haul. The track record for success is otherwise thin as energy and attention spans wane. We trust that seeking leadership from youth will continue to be a priority. ?DR
