Dear Western Queens, is is the time of year to re ect and recognize all that we have to be thankful for. We can all probably admit that spend too much time thinking about what we want or what we don’t have. But as anksgiving and the holidays come up we can take the time to not only be grateful for what we have, but recognize that many other people need our help and are in much worse places. For one, I am very thankful for you our readers for picking up BORO every month, visiting our website and following us on social media. I’m appreciative of our advertisers that invest their hard-earned dollars with us to help them build their businesses. I can tell you that we will continue to listen to your feedback and get better with every day and every issue. Wishing everyone a Happy anksgiving!
