I'll be brief and too the point.

We have not met,  but I know one thing .. You are a dedicated Volunteer and invaluable Community Leader !! .

Without your tireless efforts.  no community park .. no community centter --  I wanted to congratulate you on several occassions ( pictures in front of the Capital were very cool ) ..

Keep up the GREAT JOB --- Your efforts are welcomed and appreciated my the high majority of your local townspeople.

Katrina,

Like many said before don't let it get to you I know for a fact that a lot of people appreciate you and the work you do.  When ever you are dealing with the public some people will be negative and not share your points of view.  Don't let it get you down and if you need a moral booster just let me know... You can listen to some of the AWESOME messages I get on my Cell Phone from time to time.  I have one resident in Fairfax that makes it a point to call me everytime he finishes a 30 pack and tell me just what he thinks about me.  Its actually become kind of funny now. Point is don't get down on yourself because of one persons opinion

A veteran is someone who, at one
point in his life, wrote a blank check
made payable to 'The United States of
America ' for an amount of 'up to and including My life.'

Rev. Elizabeth- Thank you for summing up all my thoughts.  Excellent!

Mummy- The pavilion project has been in process for the better part of two years and I know that Katrina gave a presentation and solicited questions at town meeting.  This posting definitely isn't the first time that it was "released" to the community.

As a member of the Parks & Rec advisory board, I can attest that what Katrina accomplishes with the minimal budget provided is amazing.  Although I don't remember the exact amount, she receives only a fraction of a full-time salary yet often works full time weeks, which would equate to hundreds of volunteer hours every year.  Even more than just her time though, she truly pours her heart into her job.  She does a great job soliciting donations of time, materials, and products from local businesses and has put in a tremendous amount of time seeking grant opportunities and applying for them.  This pavilion project is a great example of the funds she has been able to secure, and also the cutting of the ball fields, and other park and field improvements to make our community a better place.

Thank you Katrina for everything you've done.  I'm sure Mummy didn't intend to offend you personally, but remember that the unfortunate reality is that most people only speak up when they DON'T agree with something instead of when they do.

Katrina, I am very excited for the Pavilion and Restroom! Those who constantly complain, complain about everything on here. PLEASE IGNORE THEM!  You are doing a SUPER job, I applaud all of your volunteering and hours spent. Looking forward to taking walks on the path this summer and it is because of you!
