the Municipality of Pictou County. I can say that any time we reach out to the public through written pieces or speakers or whatever the method, the Town of New Glasgow rec- ognizes the importance of a regional perspective. It’s what we do because the whole region is our home. The pillars of business retention are human assets and it’s stories like Nancy’s and Geralyn’s that we want to encourage. If anywhere in Pictou County was once your home or you’re looking for a place to call your own, we want you back, we want to welcome you here! Business and infrastructure plays a big role in attracting people to stay and live here, whether they’re former residents or not.
“We support local and small businesses every step of the way.”
One of the newest attractions is the Pictou County Wellness Centre. This is a wonderful regional asset that everyone I know takes advantage of in some way. We moved back here after being away for many years. My wife and I have three young boys and we use the Wellness Centre many times a week – through the winter we’re there most days for hockey. Our family takes advantage of the gym and the pool, too. These are the kinds of things that make this region such an attractive place to do business and raise a family.
