Thank you to everyone who has gratefully pledged to the teen center. I do have a meeting set up for April 30th for a proposal so I will know from there how we will move forward and I will keep you updated!

A million things running through my mind, can't sleep ugh!!! Keep thinking about so many ways to grow our community. I pray our amendment goes through to be able to have more kids in our center. I wish I could get donations to reopen the teen center and be able to pay a college kid or two to run it and not have to charge the kids. If every person that works in our community would donate a 1.00 a week per paycheck it could happen. We have 14 or 15 area churches I wish our community would support. I feel really strongly about supporting your communities churches, grow your area churches and you grow your community. Have you checked out your local churches? I'm sure there's lots of opportunities through our churches and if there's not there could be with growth from our community. I don't know maybe these aren't the answers maybe they are. You never know what could happen until you take that leap of faith. I pray our community has growth, I pray that this is a place you want to be. I pray for our local government, our local churches, our schools, our businesses, our families, our friends. We can be a great community, we need to take that leap of faith and step out of our comfort zones. God knows I sure have stepped out of my comfort zone just by typing this. 🤷🏽‍♀️

The Girl Scouts have graciously offered to do a paddle party to help raise money for the teen center. It will be September 21st. If you can donate items that would be appreciated! Hope to see you there!!

I feel like I'm having to close a lot lately! Sorry for this but it's baseball season and I don't have the volunteers to help out. I'm working on this, so hopefully it will get resolved soon! I also have some people helping me with finding grants and other sources of funding so hopefully then I can just hire a couple of college kids to work around their school schedules! Thanks for sticking with me through our struggles. This really is a great thing for the kids it's just hard getting the volunteers. Peace and love to you all!! God bless!!

Now that I finally have some time to reflect over the past week I want to thank everyone for their support! My faith tells me that God has been here through all of this. He saw me struggling and knew I needed some help. Yes a bad thing happened but so much good has come from it. People have reached out and given hope to all these kids! When I told the kids that I may have to shut down because I can't keep it going when stuff like this happens they were upset and begged me not to close the doors. I knew there was no way I could let that happen. We have a bunch of great kids out there and we have some that make bad choices. These kids need positive role models in their life, not only in schools but outside of school. This is who we're doing this for. That is why it is so important to donate, whether its money, candy, cleaning supplies or your time. We won't reach every child but we will reach some! And if we can change one child we've done a wonderful thing! I'm so grateful that we have this opportunity in our community and I hope we can keep it going! The kids love it, I've heard it from them, i've heard it from their teachers and their parents. I pray for those kids that made the bad choice, I pray for the kids that come everyday, I pray that we can be that positive influence that some of these kids need. They need a place where they feel loved and like they belong. I am so grateful to live in this great community that steps out and helps others! You can say what you want about living in a small town, but our small town is pretty special! Thank you everyone! God is good all the time! All the time God is good! Be grateful! And remember, someone out there has it worse than you do on your worse day! God bless our small town and everyone in it!! Always look for the positive! Be grateful to God always! Thank you again!!

They caught the ones that broke in.

You know you try to do something good for the kids and what's it get you!!! The teen center was broken in to last night. Stole 3 tv's, the PS4, the Xbox, the money in the register and all the candy (about 100.00 worth) this makes me mad, it makes me sad! I've worked my butt off to keep this place open and this happens! I don't even know if I want to try anymore and that makes me really sad 😢😢

Ok, I know I'm always asking for donations to help keep the teen center open. So I have a brilliant idea 🤔😬😊. What if instead of the 5.00 or 10.00 dollars you spend on pop, junk food, to***co, etc. every week you have that money automatically deducted from your check and put in the teen center account. It not only benefits the kids but it helps you break a bad habit 😳😊. See I'm helping you drop a few pounds and break bad habits 😬🤔😊. If I could get 100 (or more) people to do 5.00 a week, I could pay a full time employee (no more begging for volunteers) and possibly not have to even charge the kids their 5.00 monthly fee. You'll be contributing to your community for a great cause. Just a thought! Thanks to everyone that has donated lately. I've had 5 people donate 100.00 this past month. Thanks for everything you all do to help, I am extremely grateful!

Hours will be the same because I can't get any volunteers. If I can't find a volunteer for Tuesday, I'll have to close.

Would love to thank the people who donated money last week and in the past. Thank you so much for helping to keep the center open!

Still looking for volunteers! Let me know if you can help in any way!
