The culmination of a campaign...

So today was the big day that we, as a levy committee, have been working toward. Today was the day we were to mount our door to door campaign. It was a huge undertaking...and an intimidating one. The "leaders" of this campaign were to meet at the high school cafeteria at noon with the volunteers to arrive at 1pm.

As you might imagine, there was a lot of nervous energy in the room as we wondered how many volunteers would actually show up on this frigid January day. Well the only word that can describe the turnout is WOW! Over 200 community volunteers filled the cafeteria as we organized. There was a true buzz in the air and I was humbled to be a part of it.



I was proud of all of our committee members for making this happen. And, with goose bumps I looked around the room and saw a community rallying around itself.



If this scene did not motivate you...you can't be motivated! Thanks to all the volunteers!
