Virtual funeral: Cabell County’s swing sets | KaBOOM!
Cabell County’s swings never meant to harm anyone. It is true that children sometimes liked to jump off them, thinking they were Superman, and that one such child broke his arm, perhaps due in part to inadequate safety surfacing. Yet we cannot help but lament the tragic decision made by this youngster’s parents to file a lawsuit, thus depriving all Cabell County youngsters of the chance to develop crucial skills, not to mention the chance to touch the sky with their toes.”

I only have a short window of appeal here so I will always try to make the most of it.
Messages continue to come across my dash of “I’m bored!” and plenty of rants of boring classes and professors and awful job-related existences. Please go out into the world or the Internet and find what interests you, what inspires you, and VOLUNTEER.
There is so much work to be done.
As the founder/executive director of two nonprofit orgs I ask you to: Be a “real” volunteer, and not a “faux volunteer” made mandatory from a sorority or fraternity or because employers favor it on your resume.
Be a PART of life. Volunteer. Make a difference. Volunteer…Because you CARE. Because you CAN.
Thank you.
