cemed for their grandchildren and
were willing to give a large part of
their time to prepare an education
al program for the kids. Dick and
Betty Weller had a dream that
maybe, just maybe we could save
one child’s arm, leg, or even a life.
So we forged ahead expanding
our volunteer committee to nine
dedicated people. Our goal was to
host a farm safety day camp for
100 children, totally funded and
supported by the community. To
pull off an all-day program was a
huge project. The details and com
munications were at times over
whelming. But through all the
frustrations and unexpected diffi
culties there was always a current
of excitement What we were try
ing to do was good, was neces
sary, was important
To our delight the community
responded with great enthusiasm.

smiled and said, “Yes, we need to
do this, we are happy to help!”
And they gave—their time, their
resources, their finances—for the
sake of the kids. The community’s
motivation and dedication to farm
safety gave the program its
momentum and created its
success.
Dick and Betty’s dream became
a reality. More than 200 people
bene fitted from the Farm Safety
Day Camp for kids. Twenty-nine
teens gave up an entire Satunlay to
help organize the campers. Thirty
adults donated many hours plan-
ning, teaching, setting up and
cleaning up. The children and
their parents learned a wealth of -
farm safety information. Perhaps
even more important, they learned
that they live in a community
where people care about them apd
