A heartfelt token of gratitude and spoken appreciation goes out to our area firefighters that demonstrated relentless efforts and talent saving our downtown Forest City area yesterday evening. Thank you for your amazing hard work all evening, and overnight, containing the fire at the former Farmer’s Hardware. Our support goes out to them, as well as the many other affected businesses that must overcome water and smoke damage in the days ahead.

Happy 250th Independence Day America! Remember your sensory strategies for those with sensory sensitivities in the crowds, heat, and during fireworks. Most neurodivergent and sensory individuals are easily overheated and may have difficulties telling they are over heating due to challenges with interoception, so sensory sensitivities will be even more of a challenge and especially this year in this heat, stay hydrated!!
