Folsom Lake Crossing Human Chain of Gratitude

It will come as no surprise that when Julie Bjorgum introduced her idea to demonstrate gratitude - I jumped. We have a new bridge opening in Folsom, CA. It's a rare event -and has become an opportunity to express gratitude and thanks. 970 feet of bridge joining communities together.

Show your “gratitude attitude” by joining the Human Chain of Gratitude stretching across the Folsom Lake Crossing during the Grand Opening Festival on Saturday, March 28 at 12:00.

What would it be like if we all gave up and believed in hopelessness, doom, despair? Great things are accomplished because despite the odds, there were people who tried, people who believed in the possible, who weren’t afraid to fail if it furthered the greater good. We are humbled by our present circumstances, but that does not make us losers. Our society does not support the idea of coming in 2^nd, but I believe it is by our efforts that we are all winners. Folsom’s newest bridge next to Folsom Dam is certainly an inspiring example of seemingly insurmountable odds made possible by hard work, commitment and positive thinking. We pay tribute to all who made it a reality.
