We want to thank everyone who came out today to show their support and get additional information on the city issues. I want to send out another BIG thanks to all the volunteers we had helping out. We couldn't have handled the volume without your help. It was great to meet everyone. I hope we answered many of your questions and hope to get the rest of them answered in the near future. We received lots of signatures and got a very large number of local citizens registered to vote in the process. All day long there was a steady stream of people and we even ended up staying past 4 PM because the people kept coming. Many times throughout the day, even with 2 clip boards each at 3 different signing stations, we had lines forming! Amazing!Thank you for speaking up and seeking out information instead of sitting home and letting the decisions be made for you! We will be out at the park tomorrow, Sunday, Sept. 12th, from 8AM - 4PM, as well, in case you were not able to make it today.
I also want to put out a special thanks to Paula Roddenberry for her beautiful prayer at noon at our moment of silence in remembrance of the 9/11 tragedy.
Kitty, from Swamp Grass, your baked goodies are wonderful! They were a great treat when we were able to take a breather. We really appreciate you stopping by and dropping them off for our crew and the volunteers to enjoy. I'm sure you have hooked some new customers! :o)
We don't want to forget to mention the special visit from Mayor Joe LaCascia and his lovely wife. Thank you for stopping by to see what we are doing and speaking with the people who came out. It was great to see you.We also want to send out a special THANK YOU to the people who generously gave unsolicited donations to help cover the costs of what we are doing. We really appreciate your support. By the looks of it, a special election will be in the future and every little bit helps! :o)
Looking forward to another great day tomorrow! See you at the park.
