I’d been looking forward to this for several weeks.. this morning was the Generator Board retreat. We all met at Burlington City Arts for a half day of facilitated soul searching: who are we , how far have we come, where are we going.. standard  board stuff.

I coul dhave swarn they said it was a SPa day.. but I was the only one who showed up in my jammies.. Geeeez !

 

I really love the folks on this board. They are so dedicated and energetic

 

. It really did feel good to think how far we’ve gotten in the past year.

It was fun to think back to our humble beginnings

here’s our first setup day

We did lots of thinking of where we want to go with generator.. now that it’s up and running well.. there was lots of passion, energy and good intentions. Those give me confidence that we will find our way to awesomeness.. I personally believe that much of that direction will come from  combination of our board thoughts, the members and the community.. I feel there’s will be  lots of fun trial  and error. along  the  way and I welcome both -)

I’m proud to be part of this orginization.. and look forward to traveling with it as it evolves. I want to publiclly thank the other mmebers of the board, our leaders, members, staff and our fascilitator today , Paul,.. for helping us move along the way !

 

nite all, nite sam
