SandBox Comments: Eagle County Times "Education Foundation of Eagle County"

'by – what we learned' :

"Some ECT folks attended a recent meeting of one of Eagle County’s newest 501(c)3 non-profits – www.efec.org. (Photo – Amber Prince & Charles Overy)..."  (Read more?  Click title)

How long has it been now?

Couple of years?

How long has it been that the commmons have been finally starting to speak up in very public ways against the status quo in local politics and government issues through  harnessing tools like the power of the blogosphere and social networking?

How long has their rising success been showing in powerful enough ways to make powerful non-profits, major corporate powers, powerful politicians, local governments and law enforcement pay attention to what lies beneath the surface of such entities and those held in positions of trust?

A year or so?

How long has it been since you, the individual voter/follower, realized that a light bulb, an epiphany of sorts, has come on in your way of thinking?

Today?  Yesterday?  A week ago?  A few months ago?

All that matters is that your awareness has been pierced by first whispers, then outspoken voices cutting trails of communication avenues ahead of you.  What you do with your awareness is your business and falls into what you're willing to experience when you make your own choices.

Thank you once again goes to the guys and gals over on the Eagle County Times.

Why?

For paying attention to the patterns within the news others make and cutting trail ahead of you.

We wish good luck to the 'Education Foundation of Eagle County'.

May you never forget that as a non-profit you and all who work within your organization are no longer just average citizens but rather persons in a position of trust.  That you are held to a higher standard.

As far as the goal you have set for your organization, may you always remember that there are endless possibilities on both sides of the political spectrum that would accomplish true public education reform. 

"Unapologetically pursuing and tracking patterns within the news others make since 2010."
