Our Visioning Rally
Last night, the time had come for our visioning rally! We were all a little antsy, as we had put in so much work, and D-Day had finally arrived. Before the rally, there was a flurry of activity. Everyone worked so well together, it was just fabulous. Together with the Steering Committee, I would really like to thank everyone for all their help and support who have made it possible for this event to take place. It is simply not enough to just say thank you, but that is the best we can do…without your help, we would not have been able to pull off such a wonderfully fantastic evening.
If you hadn’t already guessed, it was terrifically successful. We had 158 people grace us with their presence and many wonderful ideas were shared. There was lots of participation by everyone who attended, and many great ideas were brought up. David Beurle was as supporting as he was funny. His humor helped us all understand exactly what it is that we are capable of, in the way we work for our future. He helped us realize that there are areas where we can improve, but mainly showed us our strengths and how we can utilize them to help St. Maries grow into a thriving community, as well as being able to keep what is important to us! Our family values and “close knit” feeling.
We are looking forward to setting all these ideas into motion at our Visioning Launch on October 29th, 2007 at Tommy’s Pizza from 6:30 to 8:30 PM! I hope that we can see you all there to continue with the fantabulous start we have created!
