Happy Thanksgiving week!
As you can see, the CN&R is celebrating the holiday by coming out a day
early. So, feast your eyes on what we've got on tap for you this week:
profiles on some of Butte County's most giving individuals (our Local
Heroes!); a check-in with local charities that are working to help the
homeless; a chiding of some recent cop retirements; and our annual
holiday festivities calendar. Plus more, naturally.
From the CN&R family to yours, have a very happy, safe, fun holiday!
