Kickoff Event
The kickoff event was a huge success, by every measure. So wonderful to be with so many great friends, from all chapters of my life. Old Putnam City teachers, old classmates, current colleagues and friends of all kinds. Rachel and I were overwhelmed by all the love and support. Thank you so much to the Ryans for hosting, the co-hosts (especially Mayor Cornett, Mayor Bryan Taylor, and Commissioners Vaughn and Maughan, who were able to join us), the sponsors, and everyone who came out.
