Happy Thanksgiving! It’s hard to believe the holidays are here. The year has flown by. I hope everyone has an opportunity to sit back and give thanks for family, friends and successful business.
We had a great turnout for the Santa Cop project. We built toys for the Lincoln Police Department to hand out to children who might not have the happiest of Christmases. A huge shoutout to Dan Loeck and the rest of the committee for organizing the project and to the 100+ volunteers who showed up to help. Among our volunteers were city council members, Building & Safety employees and even Santa himself made an appearance. If you haven’t participated in this event in the past, I highly recommend you kick off the holiday season with us at Santa Cop next year.
We are looking forward to Casino Night for the HBAL Christmas Party at the Country Club of Lincoln on December 3. The deadline to RSVP has passed, so I hope you got yours in!
A final note, now is a great time to recruit new members. Our association has never been more active within our community and working with elected officials to help our industry. That doesn’t happen without the support of our membership and helping it to grow.
I will leave you with some words of encouragement:
“Make allowances for each other’s faults and forgive anyone who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others.”
-Colossians 3:13
