Thanks!
I am just writing to say thank you to all those that do blog on the website. I know it takes time but I can definately see an improvement in our community ever since Horizons has started. People become more active when they see progress and there has definately been progress. We are a small town and I love small town but we need to keep moving forward or our small town will not exist anymore. I took part in the Welcome Banquet in February and I was glad that people came to support the newcomers and the citizens of the month. I hope that each year it will grow not only with new families but also with the current families showing their support and neighborliness to the newcomers. Thanks to all who were involved.

How did you set up the Welcome Banquet? We talked about a similar activity during Study Circles in Tyndall but it did not make the “to do” list when we set up stragetic planning. We do have a Welcome Basket which is distributed by Chamber and a volunteer from one of our churches. Items are donated by businesses-certificates, brochures, pens,promotional items, etc. and our flower shop puts them together. Chamber pays them for the basket. It has been working very well for us. One draw back is that it may not always reach the residents of Tyndall who do not live in the city proper. Good luck with yours!

Judy,
I have photos for the event, so I’ll try to do a post in the next couple of days with a few more details.

Hi,
I was at Mark’s Photographic Images in Armour yesterday so I took a swing through town and checked out Main Street and the Lions Park. A group of us from Sanborn Central Horizons will be back in Armour on March 25th for the marketing seminar…see you then.
