More applause!!
ReplyDeleteI was delighted to have the opportunity to meet most of the students who assisted in clearing the fence line at our Women’s Community Residence (WCR). They were AWESOME! Each and every person worked so hard – and they all did it with a smile. They told me they were motivated – it was HOT. They had some great questions and comments about LRADAC and the WCR. Thanks so much for asking us to participate. It was a wonderful experience.
