We always joke here in Point Pleasant about finally breaking "Cornstalk's Curse" when we complete projects or see major turnout at festivals, but you know what really breaks the curse? The tireless work of our volunteers who meet and plan these projects and events, work with our staff in meeting goals and carrying out plans, and genuinely care about making our city a better place to live. It certainly takes a village, and we have the best one around.
