Have you written any thank-you notes lately? My Mother drilled into me
the importance of writing them as a child. I don't think I write as many
these days as I should. People just don't write letters anymore, right?
But even though technology has changed how we communicate, it
shouldn't change our need to express thanks.
And there is one thank-you note that I really, really need to write.
Dear Columbia Council Representatives,
Thank you so much for your recent vote in support the Inner Arbor/McCall Plan for Symphony Woods. It was just what I wanted! The best part is that I can share it with my family, friends, and neighbors. It's a really thoughtful gift.
The Symphony Woods project is a gift that will keep on giving. I am so excited to be a part of something new and beautiful for Columbia. Finally we have found a way for other generations to contribute to something lasting and meaningful for our community. We love Columbia, too. We want to build on its great beginnings.
Columbia--long a supporter of the arts--will have a dinner theater, a children's theater, a tree-house amphitheater for outdoor performances. The Columbia Association--our advocates in fostering a better quality of life--will have a much-needed new headquarters in an appealing setting. (I think it will encourage more community participation.) Our community--home to schools, charitable groups, and other worthy non-profits--will have a space for proms, fundraising events, and other large celebrations.
Symphony Woods--meant to be a place for the people--will be cared for, beautified, treasured.
I was so energized by the work you did on this project that I decided that I want to be a Columbia Council Representative, too. I hope that I will be able to work with you and contribute to this and other projects that help make Columbia awesome.
Thanks again,
Julia McCready
