Celebrating the end of a long and dusty trail

Thursday, July 10th, 2008

The final celebration for completing the Horizons Poverty Study Project was held at the RamKota in Bismarck on July 9, 2008. Attending from McKenzie County were Marcia Hellandsaas, Dale Swenson, and Dorothy Reil.

I liked Anita Rohde’s comment that the length of this program is about equal to the gestation period of an elephant. I would like to add that Mom Elephant’s milk nourishes the calf for 3 to 4 years. That means our work has just begun and we have four more years to devote to the nourishment of our goals. Change may not happen overnight, but it will happen.
