"The polls are open.  Go out today, do your duty and vote!"  ~WAKO Radio

Sunday Thought

It is a week of elections across the U.S. as well a time to honor Veterans.  

Thanks to all who served or are serving today. 
Such dedication makes possible freedoms we all enjoy.

Together We Learn & Grow

Failure is part of growing up.  Kids need real support from adults who stand behind them all the way.  "Finishing a race together," is so very important.  The process and modeling is how our young
people will learn to negotiate life.
