The folks in Huntington have really been an inspiration to watch during the past year. Numerous volunteers have rallied around over 20 specific projects to re-create Huntington for a prosperous future. From Mayor Felinton, to Dr. Stephen Kopp at Marshall, to volunteer leaders such as Phoebe Patton Randolph and Anne Durham (among many others!), the momentum is really building.
Their approach, while a lot of hard work, epitomizes the concepts of building creative communities for the new economy.
The Create Huntington team has launched their official web site to keep community members engaged and up to speed. Stop by their site, cheer them on, and maybe borrow some of their best practices. We look forward to featuring their story at the October 20-22 Create WV Conference.
Go Create Huntington!
