Working together

The Liberty Hills neighbors decided recently they needed to update their neighborhood sign. In February, they started working on the sign and, on Oct. 13, they held a celebration luncheon marking the completion of the project, which has brought the community together, strengthening old friendships and growing new ones. Kathlyn Albertson and Lisa Carpenter met with Liberty mayor Brian Petersen to begin the renovation. However, the project really took off when Rooky Cooley stepped forward to serve as the project’s president. The sign, which sits on U.S. Highway 178 at the city of Liberty’s entrance, has been complimented by many, many people, who have let the community know how much they like the blue-grey stone and wood sign in the freshly landscaped bed. The success of this endeavor has led to residents of the neighborhood volunteering to serve in a slate of roles including grounds upkeep, Jim Mulligan; neighborhood watch, Danny Carpenter; and chaplain, Bill Smith. Bob Albertson spoke at the luncheon, saying, “I love when a plan comes together … I love when a community comes together.”
