One of our goals all along is to encourage people to participate in our efforts through writing β about life experiences. The other night π at the Back to School Bash, Trenton Miller was operating one of the many booths and was kind enough to describe his experience.
Back to School Bash
It was truly a blessing to be part of Carroll County this evening. I was able to set up at the Bash as a vendor for the first time, and I wasnβt totally sure what to expect. I had linked up with Warren Chappell from DC Tech IT, LLC, to giveaway a bunch of pens as well as some notebooks and flashlights. I also had some educational material there, concerning finance, that was available to anyone who was interested.
I was blown away by the amount of families and children that came past my table in the 3 hours that I was there. Many children were loading up on school supplies and even some parents were joining in on the fun of receiving free gadgets! I had a sign-up sheet for the Book Bags I was giving away, and very quickly my biggest concern became, how can I have more than 3 bags to giveaway next year? I could tell many of the folks that were signing up were really hoping that they would win and I was really hoping they would win as well!
Itβs so cool to see a community come together and help each other out and make the day special for so many. You never know what one smile, one word of encouragement, or one free notebook or pack of pencils could do for someone. We all have βreal lifeβ things that we face each day, and when we are surrounded with lots of people giving to a good cause, it leads us to pause, and take time to be grateful for the many blessings that we have been given.
I certainly enjoyed being able to participate this year and am looking forward to being able to help again next year!
