Finally, I can now proclaim: This ain’t my first rodeo! What’s next?
Whatever it is, let’s dream it, believe in it and work together to make it happen!
The Donalsonville-Seminole County Chamber of Commerce is as alive and kicking as the Boots & Roots Rodeo is set to be, this coming weekend. Great things are happening in the chamber and in our community and the April 28th and 29th rodeo is just the latest chapter in that exciting story. The chamber’s annual rodeo and the time and effort it takes to stage it is the perfect example of a community’s chamber of commerce working well and developing new and ongoing projects to enhance and promote the local community’s way of life.
The chamber’s rodeo project has engaged the entire community, bringing multiple groups, governments, businesses and organizations to the same table for the unified purpose of developing plans of action for all of us to live life well right here in Seminole County.
Show your support for the chamber and the Rodeo this weekend. For the price of a ticket, a T-shirt and something to eat, you will get a professional rodeo show and a whole lot more.
Proclaiming its commitment to Seminole County’s farmers and agri-businesses, this entire community and its bright future, the chamber will proudly donate a percentage of the profits from the rodeo to the Seminole County 4-H program, the Seminole County Green Machine Band, local Boy and Girl Scouts and, new this year, an Agriculture Scholarship which has been established and will be awarded annually to a Seminole County Senior beginning with next year’s honor night ceremony.
The chamber’s new slogan, We are open, tells us this place is open for business, but, here in Donalsonville and Seminole County, we are open means so much more. It means we are also open to new thoughts and new possibilities. We aspire to open up minds and celebrate the genius in all of us.
This ain’t my first rodeo and I have learned from experience that teamwork does indeed make the dream work. Share your dream. Join the team! Let’s work together and open up a world of ideas and let curiosity get the best of us.
