Human Resources Consultant at Regions Bank Cherie Sasser shares her favorite parts of Helena.

Finding Friends

Social Hour

There’s something truly special about living in Helena, a small-town community where connections run deep. Whether we’re heading to the grocery store or dining at a local restaurant, we often find ourselves running into friends and stopping to chat. It’s one of those simple yet wonderful aspects of life here—those unexpected moments of connection that remind us how close-knit our town really is.

 

City Events

Out on the Town

Part of what makes Helena so vibrant is the wealth of events and activities that bring us together. From the dazzling fireworks on the 4th of July to the lively Buck Creek Festival, the festive Christmas Parade, and the bustling Farmer’s Market, there’s always something to look forward to. High school soccer matches are another highlight for us.

 

Husky Education

Sharing the DNA

Speaking of schools and soccer, our family is experiencing a unique milestone this year. Our two teenage sons, Devon and Mason, are finally attending the same school. Devon is a senior, and Mason just started as a freshman. It’s been heartwarming to watch them grow up, share stories about teachers and school events, and now, for the first time, they’ll be playing soccer together on the same high school team. It’s a season we’re all anticipating.

Old Cahaba

Feeling at Home

Lastly, our neighborhood, Old Cahaba, has been home to us since Devon started kindergarten. We couldn’t ask for better neighbors or a more welcoming community. From gathering in driveways to watch football games to celebrating Halloween—a particularly big event in Old Cahaba.
