Today is Thanksgiving. For many a time of reflection and expression of gratitude for the bounties of life, for others it's family, turkey, football and parades. For some it's a day of work.
Collectively in Fillmore we have several public items to be thankful for. I'll express some of my thoughts.
I'm thankful for Miliary Banner program. It reminds me daily of those individuals from our town who see the big picture and put liberty and freedom above personal gain.
I'm thankful for the recent FEMA stay which will save 1500 families a large amount of money for a few years.
I'm thankful that the Board of Directors for the Boys & Girls Club who are committed to keeping the club doors open for the youth of Fillmore and have stepped in to do just that.
I'm thankful for the past vision of individuals who have helped shape our town and the amenities we now have.
This are some of the public items which I'm proud of as a Fillmore citizen.
