Ditch that lackadaisical attitude

Mon., Jan. 20, 2020

Get involved in your community. Be the person who will question leaders who want us to do as they say. Without interference and direction from our citizens we give policy makers little or no resistance, or support if appropriate. Battles are worth fighting if they do something extra for our community,

state or country.

If we don’t all give the best we’ve got, the good we have strived for will be forgotten. Don’t let anyone or anything be your reason or excuse for a listless spirit. Become an active member in local organizations where your contributions will help build a brighter future for all.
