Building community one step at a time

By Sonja Reis

In honor of Women’s History Month, I’m calling attention to a baker’s dozen of Sto-Rox area sheroes with the inaugural “Rocks Sheroes Community Builders Award.” I know I can’t be the only one who sees these strong women and so many others volunteering their heart, soul, time and talents to build community.

Without further delay, here’s the list for 2024. We’re hoping you’ll help us to compile the list for 2025.
