Our wonderful rural communities still preserve much of our cultural values and continue to embody our living history. There are so very many communities, like this one, isolated by just a few km of stable access road, lines of power and solutions for potable water necessary to provide improved economic development and health quotients. Our rural dwellers continue to smile, work and strive to progress, as best they can within the confines of their environment, despite such challenges and lack of the infrastructure that others may take for granted.
