Make a Difference Day – Thank You from the Black Diamond Community Center | Letter


October 31, 2012 · Updated 10:59 AM 

Make a Difference Day on Saturday, Oct. 27, was the best ever.

Thank you to Rotary, Kiwanis, the Lake Sawyer Christian Church, and so many others who turned out to help their community members.

Rain the wind did not slow down the hundreds who showed up to help.

Breakfast at the Black Diamond Community Center was so good, everyone wanted seconds.

The Rotary can really put out the food, on the new stove they bought for our Center).

To sum up what this project means to one of our seniors they helped, Leslie O said “This may be Make a Difference Day, but for me, it is Make a Difference in my life day.”

The Rotary had worked all week to replace her porch and steps.

What a blessing for us to have such wonderful helpers…

Cheryl Hanson,

Executive Director,

Black Diamond Community Center
