I did this before the first class and didn't really talk about my city - I really like Northfield's small seasonal festivals and community events, like the farmer's market, Winter Walk, Defeat of Jesse James Days (weird, yeah), or theater productions and art installations - things that bring people together in public spaces and make Northfield feel like its own unique, interesting place. I'm worried about downtown/the center of cultural and economic activity being so close to an increasingly flood-prone river, and Northfield also has a problem with much of the immigrant community and poorer residents being segregated off to a less well-maintained, less accessible, rarely visible part of town.
