Happy Thanksgiving!
In the spirit of the holiday, we at the News & Review give thanks for a few special people in the community who make Chico a better place to live in our annual Local Heroes issue.
In other news: Paradise High School alumnus Jeff Maehl makes waves as the top receiver for the University of Oregon Ducks; the lonely animals at Butte Humane Society look to you for a home; and Arts Devo challenges his loyal readers to a puzzle.
Have a wonderful holiday!
