The local not-for-profit Leadership Ventures plans to pilot a program that teams not-for-profit CEOs in monthly sessions where they’ll jointly solve problems at one another’s organizations.

Moondance Enterprises LLC Rental firm offers ‘marvelous’ nights Search for vacation retreat led to career change Indiana natives Doug and Nancy Tracey visited Brown County one autumn night in October 1988, looking to buy a vacation retreat.
