Our Country needs us. We need each other. We’ve been temporarily knocked off balance, but are more than capable of righting the ship. First we catch our breath, then audit our resources and community interests, meshing our abilities with community needs. We’ll then work with family, friends, elected reps and other community colleagues to heal and help. Come join us, share some ideas, and let’s pursue some EFFECTIVE community building…

The buzz and noise are inescapable as we try to maintain our sanity while reconciling concepts like "DEI", "Flip-Flop" and being "WOKE."
