Editor,
I am sure many of you can identify with the feeling, “Darn, I wish I would have said ...”
At the annual Polson Chamber of Commerce awards banquet on Friday, Nov. 2, 22 people were recognized for their work as teachers, city employees, businesses and individuals in agriculture, nonprofits and businesses, citizens and volunteers. I was recognized as the Polson Ambassador Volunteer of the Year and when accepting the award, I wish that I would have said:
“I am impressed with the Polson Chamber of Commerce. Your positive energy and attitudes are electric. This room tonight is pulsating with youthful vibes and people ready to be involved and work for the betterment of our community. I thank the chamber board and members for also volunteering their time for Polson. It is sad, however, to think that there are many community volunteers who do not get recognized for their unselfish giving. I am fortunate to have been recognized. Thank you.”
