Holland Fest 2013

Our community has an annual celebration that brings people of all ages together to support our Christian school.  This is a huge day with many people putting in many hours of work to make it happen smoothly.  We try to help out where we can.  This year Scott thought it would be neat to create something for the auction.  He and a friend built some beautiful Adirondack chairs to raise money for the school.  They ended up doing quite well.  The funny thing is (and this is typical of Scott's projects), the chairs ended up taking way more time and energy than was planned.  It was worth the effort, though, and they went to a good home.  The day, though very successful, had a tinge of sadness as Mr. Leenstra recently having passed away, was obviously missing from this celebration.  There were many memories and much laughter still shared.  We are thankful for this caring community and glad to be a part of it!
