It will never work. 2. We can ’t afford it. 3. We ’ve never done it that way before. 4. We ’re not ready for it. 5. It’s not our responsibility. 6. We ’re doing fine without it. New ideas are fragile and all too easily killed by criticism. People who work in groups often help nurture new ideas and ways to help make the community a better place for all. There are many wonderful ideas people have to help the town of Butte Fails. For example, efforts are underway to raise money to install new play equipment for the elementary school playground. The BF Fire Department is applying for grants to improve their safety equipment. Our police chief secured funding for a “ campus cop ” . And plans to construct a water bottling plant are underway. Much of the work to secure outside funding for the benefit of our Town comes from the volunteer efforts of many. The Butte Falls S e KL'J is an excellent example of a volunteer effort to inform and honor the work being carried out in our th TSRQPONMLKJIHGFEDCBA in g s community by many. The would not be possible without the volunteer coor dination efforts of Cory Hamann. Where g©©d a re ha ppening... C o m e jo in os... S u n d a y Service 1 0 :0 0 A .M . Y o u t h G r o u p every Tuesday 6 0 0 P J \ / L I ) 8 6 5 .3 3 8 9 ■ is the 20th of the month... the 20th of the month.... the 20th of the month This year 3 students at the Butte Falls High School have undertaken community service projects to help the school and community. Amber Pettit has coordinated efforts to install a new basketball court at the elementary school and is making a new BUTTE FALLS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL sign. Brandi Slaton is getting a new PA system purchased and installed at the high school t TSRQPONMLKJIHGFEDCBA football field and will be painting the dugouts and improving the entrances to the field. And Elizabeth McLauchlan is working to bring the SMART Reading Program to the elementary school. All of these improvements amount to over $10000. which the students raised themselves through donations, grants, and volunteer work. Next time we hear the inevitable criticism that might otherwise kill an idea in the bud, just look around you at the library, museums, toddler playground, beautiful old-fashioned street lights, tennis court, road into the falls, picnic area at the falls, River Cove Trail, Fairy Glen Trail, ballfield, flowers hanging in the park, bridge over the creek, the wonderful 4th of July celebration, work being carried on by various clubs, organizations, and local churches, city officials, improvements at the cemetery, and the donations of hundreds of thousands of dollars to help our students go to college--- and know without all of this time, effort, and ideas where would our community be today? Thank you one and all for helping to make Butte Falls the special place that it is. God Bless you... there are too many of you to name. But what would we do without you! To Joyce from Cory-1 have two questions... 1. We do have some neat people living and helping in our town don ’t we? 2. What would we do without you? If you have something for the please turn it in at City Hall, email me (dhinc@cdsnet.net ) mail to Cory PO Box 198, or call me at 865.3310. PLEASE if at all possible use your computer and give it to me on a disk with a paper copy. I use Corel word perfect... Microsoft word works too. Anything that I don ’t have to re°type is wonderful... Thanks!
