I think that a successful project like this will help revitalize the community. And the community has come together, because they're so anxious for it to be a success. They want this community to be vibrant and full. |

That brought us in $1,400 last year, which doesn't go very far. It just seemed, as I sat and looked at these other people in these other towns and what they were able to make, that we'll make 10 times that even in our first year-and just think what that'll be able to do. |
They are things that are updated, so we don't have to go 60 miles either way to have access to that kind of equipment. |
