LD orientation; first impressions

We met on the beautiful Agnes Scott campus to hear about the program from those “in the know.” Sara Fountain, Exec Dir is a stickler for being on time — a challenge for those of us who are chronically late! This point was really driven home by several of the speakers. I was really inspired by Maria Mullins comments and will try to live up to her challenge of making every minute of the program count and taking risk to maximize the value of the experience.

Off to work on a proposal for the Samsung Center…..

Getting started

Summer is over and it seems like everything is getting started at once. Things kicking in for We Media 2010 planning, school underway, soccer and swimming, girl scouts and Leadership Dekalb is underway. All 52 of us met for an orientation at Agnes Scott last week and did some quick introductions. It sounds like a lot of interesting people and, for once, I don’t know a single person in the whole room! Obviously that will change soon but it’s both exciting and bit intimidating. Our schedule looks good and I’m looking forward to getting started.

We had several speakers who gave a good idea of the value of the program and their ongoing support for LD. Makes me anxious to get started on the “real” stuff.

Hello world!
