The best part of being in a parade is riding through town and greeting townspeople and being greeted with waves, cheers, thumb's up and salutes. Several of us PR members from Save our VA committee decorated a golf cart notifying citizens of the upcoming "roll out" presentation of our proposal to Washington for saving and growing our VA.
Finally, after over five months of work by many dedicated individuals committed to the health care of our veterans, the completed product will be shown to the community of Hot Springs at the same time as it will be revealed to the press.
The whole process of working together in smaller groups on separate issues, all combining to help us save a unique and much needed place of healing for veterans, has been challenging, invigorating, inspiring, exhausting and extremely satisfying. There is power in numbers and commitment to an idea. There is power in a positive attitude of victory for a common cause.

Phase one is completed. Phase two is about to begin.
