Join us for an enthralling journey as we bring together a vibrant ensemble of West Liberty's finest. Chief Werling steers the conversation by unveiling the latest police department updates, all the way from sprucing up the police squad cars to managing traffic issues. We also have the McFerrins, Clifford, Cara, and their son William, who walk us through their commendable heritage and community projects. And that's not all; local residents Cara Calvin McFerrin, Charles Brooke, Allie Paarsmith, and Stephanie Vallez share their unique perspectives on all things West Liberty.
This episode takes a fascinating detour as we indulge in the riveting tales of young William McFerron, who's been busy restoring a downtown steam engine. Prepare to be captivated as William recounts his adventures of firing up the engine last Halloween. We also dissect the ongoing changes in West Liberty, focusing on the growth of local businesses and the importance of walking and biking trails for improving our community's quality of life. Don't miss out as we discuss the Meadows and Dumont-Dutton subdivisions and the annexation of Wiele Chevrolet into the city!
Finally, we turn the spotlight to the annual Chamber of Commerce golf tournament and some fantastic changes brewing in our local library. Mark your calendars for the upcoming community events, including puppet shows at Rendezvous Park as part of the Children's Festival and the vibrant Fiesta Latina on Calhoun Street. We end on a high note with a profound conversation with Jack Kraus about the sense of community in West Liberty and the area's booming business growth. So tune in, sit back, and take a thorough tour of our beloved town!
