Beautiful Monday, and one full of news

Good Morning! It's a glorious day in Brentwood this Monday, Nov. 2. If you haven't checked out Brentwood Home Page today, you should. Here's a sampling:

Proposed school calendars already creating buzz

Leve: Discussion begins on Thursday

On Saturday, school board member Terry Leve shared with his District 6 constituents an email outlining three proposed 2010-2011 Williamson County Schools academic calendars. By Sunday, many Brentwood parents were already heating up the internet, passing emails back and forth about the proposals.

Brentwood shops say 'Happy Holidays' early

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas. That means holiday specials and promotions are just around the corner. For many stores, it also means the time has come for this season’s open house events – with several planned as early as this week.

Fifth annual Hoover Run's Saturday

The Hoover Run for Hope 5k and children’s one-mile run is scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 7 at Kenrose Elementary School in Brentwood. In its fifth year, this event has raised more than $100,000 to support the mission of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

I think Brentwood, and Williamson County as a whole, are at an important crossroads. Must we always hold on to the past or might we take a chance to see what exciting things the future might hold?
The question has been heavy on my mind for the past several days. It doesn't stem from one event but several I experienced in the last week.
