LOVE RIVERBANK PROJECT


On Saturday our town gathered together for the "Love Riverbank"program. We had over 200 volunteers that showed up to help out.. My Assistant Pastor and his Wife were asked to be in charge of the program this year. They along with our Mayor Richard Obrian and some locals put a lot of time and and effort in to planning the event.Which turned out great.We had Eight projects going on.Cleaning the Parks, some of the streets that were over grown by weeds and litter, taking food to our Fire department and cleaning the local library.It was so nice working along side other people who live in our Community and getting to know new people.

 Just wanted to blog about it,  in this day and age there are still a lot of good people out there willing to come together for there city and make a difference.
We also celebrated Earth day at Jacob Meyer's Park.The park is a Family oriented park no alcohol allowed,pets must be on a leash, The park was packed full to capacity with people walking around and contributing to our local businesses.A lot of good food to choose from,they even had a duck race down the river. For $1.00 you purchased a yellow rubber duck and the winner of the duck race won $100. (I lost lol ) Kids were splashi g in the river having agreat time.So all and all it was a fun filled day for our Community.

  4. P.S. You might want to think of getting rid of Word Verification if you want to increase your readership. It seems to keep bloggers away. Just a friendly suggestion:)
