Editor:
I wanted to give a big thank you to all the people and businesses that helped this project happen. It amazed me that businesses were able to donate all of the supplies that they did, especially with the way the economy is right now. It has shown me that even though times are tough, people are still willing to help and stand together and be able to accomplish great things.
I would also like to thank everyone that came out during the days of the project to give of their time to help. It really was an amazing event and will be one that will always be remembered.
