Whopper of a Celebration
Welcome , especially if you arrived at the blog using the pen or clip you got at the Strategic Plan Celebration! Turnout for the game and Whopper feed (burgers eaten –700) brought a large number of cpmmunity members together January 25th. The school space was decorated with pictures of Horizons Projects and groups as well as the Plans and blue fridge clips and bluegrip design black ink pens on a balloon flanked table. If you did not get a Plan or handout, ask at the bank.
“Where do I sign up” takes some time to select from the many options. Turn in your volunteer sheet at the bank also, or speak to the other Horizons volunteers to get involved.
We were fortunate to have Extension representatives Kari, Carla and Cheryl from SDSU as well as Sandra from Hamlin County. Their Northwest Area Foundation inout has started us on the next Horizons projects with confidence. Our goal of alternative energy development has found an oopoportunity -the school is a possible site for a Wind for Schools turbine thru the Wind Powering America program and we have qualified volunteers ready to support the education and economic facets of the installation. What a great opportunity to celebrate at Celebration! Host schools will be selected by February 15th; watch the blog for future activity in alternative energy.

Sounds like your “whopper of a celebration ” was a success. Good Job Estelline! Conde held their strategic plan celebration in January as well with a carnival theme at the high school gym. I had tried to connect with someone to prepare/serve whoppers but did not have any luck. Could you suggest who to call if we would like to try the whopper feed another time? Thank-you
