EDITOR’S NOTES Dear Readers, If there is one thing that September signifies, it’s undoubtedly new beginnings. Schools are back in full swing and the wrap of summer indicates new adventures ahead. This September is no exception. As the march towards autumn beckons, all fiscal indicators remain positive as we dive into our September issue. With our finger firmly on the pulse of all things business, aviation, and municipal, we continue to uncover favorable things ahead for the organizations we covered in our September issue. For our September issue, we touched down at Billings Logan International Airport, Cherry Capital Airport and Evansville Regional Airport. We had the opportunity to speak at length with all three of these dynamic Airport Directors to talk about all things aviation. With a firm navigational map in hand, each airport has produced results that signal growth on the horizon as they work to accommodate aviation growth ahead. From flying high to getting the civic job done, we had the opportunity to profile some thriving and dynamic municipalities for our September issue. Our features detail each municipality’s top initiatives and look into their masterplans ahead. Business View’s September pages are filled with captivating features with city officials from Atchison, Kansas, Centralia, Washington, Covington, Washington, Crandall, Texas, Denison, Texas, Escanaba City, Minnesota, East Ridge, Tennessee, Frederick, Oklahoma, Hardeeville, South Carolina, Midland Texas and Marion, Arizona, among other fast-growing municipalities. Turning to business growth, we also covered impressive and fast-growing companies and organizations, including Five Guys Roofing, All American Pet Resorts, H&H Product Company Inc, Griffith Company, Stress Engineering services, and the Rochester Athletic Club among others. These companies show leadership and produce noteworthy projects to strengthen their business foothold and point their economic GPS towards further growth. Our September issue also continues to bring you our popular school district series. We had the opportunity to sit down with school officials from several leading school districts to discuss the pivot to the changing demands of the economy and their innovative approaches to ensure students are college and career-ready while always being put first. We spoke with the Greater Jasper Consolidated School DIstrict, Kennedale Independent School District, Jarrell Independent School District, Lake County Schools and the Vernon Independent School District among others. Providing students with hands-on educational opportunities and real-world experiences is propelling these school districts into leading roles within their communities and beyond. As we continue to bring you sector and industryfocused features, we will keep a keen eye on current economic developments and business readiness to provide the best business view.
