It's great to hear about citizens helping citizens --or even potential citizens! This is about helping others to learn how important they are to making the whole community wheel turn ...and keep turning!

What a great service of the PA Weekly to have posted the videos and allowed those of us who aren't part of Tall Trees to learn more about our friends and community leaders. I was very impressed with the accomplishments of those honored and the acceptance speech. These tall trees provide a wonderful canopy over the broader community.

The ending with the Stanford Band added some gravitas to the proceedings :)
