We get an update from the wonderful folks at Veterans 1st N.E.W. who have begun their project of building a small home village for homeless veterans. They are rolling forward with their plans, and stop by with an update. Right now now they've gone through all the hoops with the city and county. Kim & Gail Nohr are great stewards of this project. Then DeVante Blanks joins as the new Head Coach for the Ashwaubenon Boys Basketball team. He talks a bit about how basketball took him off the streets in Chicago "it was a way to get away from what was going on in the streets and at home". His other focus is working with young people in our community with Reflections Community Service Program. "I wanna be a supporter and a resource for these guys, on and off the court".
