In the Beginning . . .

It all began on a cold night in December--December 12, 2008, when a hardy group of Obama supporters gathered in the home of Chuck and Lori Dye. Most were strangers to each other, but all had the common purpose of wanting to help promote the change that was on the way. The economy, health care reform, education, the environment, global warming, civil rights, were all concerns. And the President Elect had called us to community service. . . .
