All citizens of the Hanna community are urged to attend a town meeting on Jan. 13 at 5:30 p.m. at the Hanna United Methodist Church Hall. The Hanna Lions Club is sponsoring a series of community conversations called “Hanna Tomorrow” to take a strategic look at the community and map a direction toward a prosperous future. Students from the community are also invited.

Food and drink from Rumors will be served. There is no charge to participate. The Hanna Lions received a grant from the Unity Foundation to help fund the meetings. Residents of all households in the 46340 zip code area are welcome.

“The Hanna Lions Club is concerned about the future of our little community, and we want to do something constructive to see it thrive, so we are taking responsibility for mapping out a direction to move forward,” Hanna Lions member Jim Jessup said in a press release.

The first meeting will explore what local citizens value in their community, its assets and challenges, and prioritization of possible projects. Topics such as incorporation, sewers, town betterment groups, sensible growth, and community pride will be discussed.

Future meetings will be held Feb. 3 and March 10. “At these meetings we want to pick projects, goals and work groups, and start the process to actually do something,” Jessup said. “We are hoping that 30-50 people get involved in the process. It is vital to our survival as a community.”

Everyone in Hanna is invited to enjoy food and lively discussions on Jan. 13. For more information or questions, contact Jessup at 219-797-4407 or jimjessup@frontier.com.
