The year 2016 had its up and downs. Births and deaths. Wins and defeats. Here in Central Oregon we took on new issues affecting the community, as well as some old ones that just won't go away. As always, there are hundreds of people and great organizations working to make our town a better place. The world lost some major icons but even so, music, theatre and the arts flourished nationally and locally.
Wrapping up the Source Year in Review we are reminded of how proud we are to live in this community that is filled with such vibrant individuals. Thank you for reading the Source Weekly—we can't wait to see what 2017 brings!
