Thanks to all who came out for my farewell reception at the Best Western last night and a special thanks to my board members for organizing the great food and cake. I shed a few tears and will always have a special place in my heart for Carbon County! I will be still here at my job until the 21st at least.

CCEDC will be holding their annual meeting on Monday, October 7th at the Best Western Cotton Tree Inn in Rawlins. From 5-6 PM there will be a reception to say goodbye to me- Cindy Wallace, then shortly after that the annual meeting will begin. Once that is over the CCEDC board will hold their regular meeting.
I am moving back to Kansas sometime after October 18th to take another position in economic development in western KS and to also be closer to my two sons and grandchildren. I will miss everyone here but family needs are calling and I need to be closer. Hope to see you all there at least for the going away reception for me and open to the public.
