This is a web site my counterpart in the Arkansas office posted and it really is too good not to share. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Have you granted an enhancement lately and would like to tell us about what it meant to you? Please post a comment here and share your experience.
I have begun to work on my training schedule, and am interested in hearing from you about any special classes you would like me to do.
Is there anyone out there willing to help out our friends in Arkansas and is willing to visit a wish child there? Please let me know if you can do this.

I am really ashamed to say I have not updated my blog since October of last year and the only excuse is I have been busy and it is at the bottom of my list of things to do.
However, I have made a promise to myself that I will try to update this at least once a week, so I do hope you come back to visit often. You never know what you may learn or even win!! I'd really love to share your stories and hear about your wish kids, so please stay in touch.
We have recently spent 2 days away from the office on a full staff retreat and did a lot of brainstorming. As Felisha mentions in her blog, we have come up with some great ideas, innovations and will be contacting you via a survey to find out how you feel, so be sure your opinion counts and respond when it comes in the mail.
We have really missed Lawanda's smiling face around our office and look forward to her return from maternity leave. Her baby boy is doing well and Mom is ready for some adult conversation!
As we near the end of our fiscal year [ 8-31-07 ] I have to take a moment to thank each and every volunteer for all they have done to help us reach our goals. I feel we have had a great year and look forward to 2008 and even more success. If I had my way each volunteer would receive an award. I particularly appreciate the way you step up when I ask you to accept a wish assignment.
Kudos go to the Holiday Calendar committee for reaching their goal of raising enough money through the sales of the calendars to be able to sponsor a wish. Moreover, they have decided to allow an Arkansas child to benefit from their success and will be making plans to help grant a magical wish to a very special child.
If you have an idea for volunteers to raise money for a Volunteer-Sponsored Wish please let me know.
