What I love about Newport:
- Everybody knows everybody
- It’s a quaint society
- It’s pretty as a painting in winter
- The West Canada Creek runs through it
- We greet each other when we pass
What I like the least about Newport
- Everybody knows everybody
- It’s far away from civilization
- Dogs don’t follow the leash law
If I were mayor of Newport I would bring more commerce to the village. Right now we have a bank, a post office, a tavern, one restaurant, a furniture store, a gas station, and a snowmobile/four-wheeler establishment. That’s about it, and it’s half an hour to civilization in any direction. It would be great to have Newport be more of a destination place instead of a place you pass through because you got lost heading somewhere else.
