They can't be an island. By being part of the community, you help yourself as an institution. Others will go to war for you, if it's required.

We've needed this. This will really help our community.

Anybody interested can help. We need woodworking, metalworking and paint scraping. The more community involvement the better it will be.

If we as a community don't step up to help each other, then who will?

I think that a successful project like this will help revitalize the community. And the community has come together, because they're so anxious for it to be a success. They want this community to be vibrant and full.

These are issues we need to embrace and develop long-term strategies for. If we do so, our community will continue to be a marvel of growth and opportunity.
