Welcome to our September 2022 back-to school episode of Building together, a podcast about how community members, businesses, organizations, governments, and schools are working together to make West Liberty, Iowa, and surrounding areas a better place in which to live, work, learn, grow, and play. (www.weleadiowa.org)
We had fun with our longer episode last month, but we are back to our just-under-an-hour format!
Building together is produced as a service by WeLead, West Liberty Economic Area Development, a 501c3 non for profit organization that is here to promote and sustain the quality of life in West Liberty, Atalissa, and Nichols, to enable growth, to promote business development, and to foster a healthy business climate. Special thanks to West Liberty Auto Parts and the West liberty Good Fellas for making this podcast possible. My name is Ken Brooks, and I will have the pleasure of hosting each episode of building together. Each month, I will also have a guest co-host. This podcast's co-host is Xiomara Levsen, editor of the West Liberty Index! Listen as Xiomara and Ken discuss the state of West Liberty, talk about upcoming events, and interview special guests!
