We are pleased to feature the community of Coningsby in this issue. Hidden in the hills and side roads south of Hillsburgh, it’s another of our local treasures. Christmas is coming! As you contemplate your shopping list, remember that when you spend your Christmas dollars locally you’re supporting businesses that sustain local hockey, soccer, and baseball teams. Plus, you can’t beat the service when you shop with your neighborhood merchant. Corporate gifts will always be appreciated from Shelly’s Chocolate and Gifts – baskets, cookies and treats that customers love. Remember a birthday or special occasion with mouth watering chocolate, packaged to delight. Great local businesses that help save you time and money… Ready to Grill Foods has quality chicken, pork and seafood prepared not only for the grill but also for the stovetop and oven.
