"The Best Has Come"

Hello Readers,

Did you vote yesterday? I did, it was my FIRST time voting. I feel proud of myself!

"The Best Has Come:" I am would like to send a BIG CONGRATULATIONS to my Pastor, Reverend Tracey L. Brown. I am excited to see what new and positive things you will bring to Plainfield. I am pleased to now call you Councilwoman-At-Large Rev. Tracey L. Brown.

The Leadership Project: We are closing out another year! We will be helping out again at Jefferson School's Annual, Family Fun Day. It will be my 7th year, serving as a Member of this Leadership Team. It's really a blessing and privilege to be able to watch the students at Jefferson grow over the years. I love that I can be walking in the store, or anywhere, the kids get so excited to see you! 

Graduation: Graduation is June 21st, I am excited and ready to leave High School. These past four years have been a wild ride.

My Perspective: Again, I am proud of Pastor Brown, I know she will do positive things for Plainfield. I will be back very soon to check in and give you another update.

With You for Leadership,

Mural Painting Part 2

Let me start off by saying Happy New Year to Everyone. I am hoping that 2012 is a great year for everyone.

On Monday, January 16th, 2012 at 10AM, New Jersey Cares and Jefferson Elementary School hosted the MLK Day of Service Mural Painting Part 2. A total of Fifty Volunteers (including myself) and twenty students assisted in coming together to paint the pictures. Everyone did a Fantastic job on each picture, and I am sure all of the kids loved them when they returned to school.

LEADERSHIP UPDATE: On Monday, January 23rd, 2012, JSLP will be Feeding the Needy at the Plainfield Area YMCA (518 Watchung Avenue). We are very excited to help feed the less fortunate.


MY PERSPECTIVE: I thought everyone did a fantastic job painting. A special thank you to New Jersey Cares, Mr. Scot R. Burkholder, the Jefferson School Staff, and the Volunteers for coming out to celebrate Dr. MLK's National Day of Service.
