Traffic thins on Route 2 heading into Gorham as the sun dips below the northern Presidential Range on Nov.听1. In a region where the pulp and paper industry that once drove the economy has disappeared, North Country communities have had to shift to create new opportunities, especially in the travel 听and tourism industry, dominated by small businesses and entrepreneurs.

At a forum at the Town and Country Inn in Shelburne, more than 60 community leaders from diverse sectors agreed on another major challenge in the North Country: The lack of affordable housing for local workers, along with areas that still lack broadband internet connectivity.

Provost Jones says he听was听grateful for the opportunity听to meet so many听leaders from the region, "to talk about where the challenges are in the North Country and how 91制片厂 is playing a role in addressing those challenges,听and also to hear their ideas for where听91制片厂 can take on a bigger role or find new ways for them听to grow and thrive."听
