Just met the Gov and his Bride at island event

Post by Bill in Va »

Hear yee hear yee...Wow what a great event for St John Kids First, http://www.kidsfirststjohn.org
at villa Jungle Stone. Take a look at the villa at the kids site. Yours truly and his bride were there with
a number of island folks to enjoy some killer food and meet the governor and his wife and hear the need for this great
cause. The owners were so warm and welcoming. Had one on one conversations with both the Governor and his beautiful wife.
These folks are so down to earth and get our love of the islands and the need to instill the need for education in the early years,1 to 5. Big statement the Gov made hit me in the chest. They spend $40,000 a year on an inmate in prison and $1200 a year on preschool. Do you think we need to do something different? BIG thank you to Alice Krall for the invite and friendship. Folks the love of this special place continues to grow after 21 visits since 1991. Will give a report on the rest of our visit and future later...God bless....Bill
