The Community Foundation of Grundy County has started a new summertime tradition of hosting town hall meetings in four areas around the county: Mazon-Verona-Kinsman; Coal City-Diamond-Carbon Hill; Gardner-South Wilmington; and Minooka-Channahon.

Our purpose for the public meetings is to meet residents face-to-face, explain our programs and how they help all parts of the county, and to listen to residents and leaders as they tell us what’s happening in their part of the county. There might be something going on that we don’t know about and maybe we can be of assistance.
