Dear Reader,
This week, we published our 5000th article. For the record, it was Jeff Lee’s Two January Property Sales Illustrate How Family Housing in Amherst is Increasingly Out of Reach. Following the posting of Jeff’s piece we added on Friday night eight more articles (counting our weekly table of contents) bringing our total thus far to 5008 postings. Those postings were written by 365 unique contributors. Thanks to all who have helped to produce the Indy each week and to you dear reader for reading.
best wishes,
Art

Congratulations to Jeff Lee for contributing the 5000th article. And to Art and Maura, enormous thanks for the Indy. To quote its mission statement: “ The Indy aims to promote effective, vibrant, participatory democracy in Amherst by supporting transparency in Amherst government and governance. ” It has created a much needed forum to listen and learn from each other.
yes, congrats to Jeff Lee and also to Art and Maura. Where else can I read heart-warming articles about interesting goings-on in my region/town such as this https://www.amherstindy.org/2024/01/19/french-night-a-community-celebration-of-francophone-culture/
We live in complex times where it is impossible to feel confident of what is going on – and if any of us can truly make a difference/make the world a better place – and online magazines like the Indy are really important. Thank you! Hetty
Congratulations and heartfelt thanks to the whole Amherst Indy team for this so-important labor of love.
