Volunteers are
the grassroots of Boyertown's revitalization efforts. True revitalization
of a community requires well-planned coordination, with volunteers leading the
charge. YOU the volunteers of Building a
Better Boyertown (BBB) are the backbone and lifeblood of BBB.
BBB''s
volunteers unselfishly contribute their time to our community. They are
the primary reason Boyertown is a "Special
Kind of Place". Our volunteers realize that community
revitalization is a team effort. Amazingly, BBB's team has reported
9,441.5 hours of volunteering in 2009 and 29,392.55 hours since its inception
in 2005. BBB's volunteers are on another
record setting pace this year as they continue, through the selfless
contribution of time and talent, to help in the revitalization of
Boyertown's downtown district.
TO OUR
VOLUNTEERS:
It is
obvious that you all love your community. That has been demonstrated by
the many hours of time that you have dedicated to the many successful events
and activities.
You have
been involved and supported the downtown program, made connections with each
other, encouraged the participation of other community members, resolved internal
and external conflicts, and stood up for the cause as we seek to continue the revitalization
of our beloved town. You all exemplify what the term's "volunteerism"
and "community" truly mean. BBB can not thank you enough but we
would like to show our appreciation.
