This Land Is Your Land, Might We Have Some?

Since September we’ve been working, slowly, but steadily at getting land on which to put a library. When I say we I mean me and my fantastic youth group. We’ve gone back and forth trying to decide whether closing off a public road is a good idea. I guess we decided it wasn’t a good idea and instead of trying to find a donation of land from the farmers (we tried many times, unsuccessfully) we decided to find a way to buy some land (hopefully at a discount) on which to put our library/community center (and perhaps also a community garden or playground or something else because the land is a lot larger than I was hoping for). So, if we’re able to get the land, we’ll have a large space which thrills me.

I just switched power over from me and 2 teens to a new group of 4 teens for our youth group. There’s a new president (I was the former president), vice president, treasurer and secretary. I have passed a lot of responsibilities over to the new president including soliciting donations to buy the land (and get that giant discount we are hoping for) for the next few weeks while I am home. We’ll see how it all pans out!
