Keepin' it going...

We had a good clean up. The old rotten bleachers are torn down. The field is sprayed for weeds. The concession stand is cleaned out. And the field house is halfway cleaned out.

We invited 22 young Goree couples to the Young Guns Meeting held after the KCVG appreciation luncheon a few Sundays ago. We had 6 out of the 22 young couples show for the meeting. And those who attended made a plan to show up on the following Saturday and begin at the f-ball field since several of their ideas centered around that property.

Some of their ideas were: Soccer/sports arena, paintball, walking track, workout place, four wheeler trail/track, go-kart track, driving range, batting cages. Aren't they creative?

Way to go you all! And thanks Cynthia for the awesome write-up in the Courier. We really are determined to keep going for greatness in Goree.
