Happy Best of Chico Day!
I don't know about you, but the Best of Chico big reveal is one of my favorite days of the year. As managing editor, I get to oversee this issue and, while it's a monster of an undertaking, it's always worth it. This year, as always, we have some amazing, worthy winners. So, congratulate them when you see them around town or visit their businesses!
There's more, of course, including a look at how to address homelessness; an introduction to Eugene Cleek, an Enloe doctor who's running for Congress; and progress working with dyslexic kids.
Enjoy!
Meredith J. Cooper, managing editor
