Thank You
Dear Conservation People,
Thank you for the good dinner, the entertainment, the door prizes that my dad won and the bike, tee-shirt and plaque. I can’t wait for next years Conservation project! I was so nervous my legs and knees were shaking. Thanks again. My bike was up to my chest and my mom had to lower the seat so I could ride it. It is a really awesome bike!
Thank you for your time,
