Connecting past and present makes a fascinating read

I would like to give a big thumbs up to Larry Peterson for the great columns he has written over the years about Creston’s young people and their accomplishments.

As a long time Creston resident and former teacher here for 33 years, I have truly enjoyed reading where the pathways of Creston’s youth have taken them. If not for Larry’s well researched and written articles, most of Creston would not know of these accomplishments.

I always told my students that keeping up with the news was important, but in order to understand current events we often have to reach back into the past. Connecting past and present can make a fascinating read.

I can tell that this type of feature writing is a labor of love for Larry. Keep up the good work! Also, thanks to the CNA staff for producing a well-rounded and informative newspaper.
