H A P P Y N E W Y E A R

A new year, a new beginning, a new

start for all of us. HAPPY NEW YEAR

and happy resolution making and

achieving season! I hope that your year

is wonderful and prosperous. I want to

give you a few quotes that have

inspired me. 

“It doesn’t matter where you came

from. All that matters is where you are

going.”-- Brian Tracy

Nothing is impossible; the word itself

says "I'm possible." --Audrey Hepburn

I task each of you to find a quote, a

saying, a song, a lyric or verse that

inspires you to stick to your resolutions

and fresh start. This will help you to stay

on track and stay motivated.

The upcoming months are going to be

busy with stock shows, sports and end of

year school functions. Seniors, keep on

keepin' on. Your almost done with high

school and going to start a huge next

chapter in your life.

I am looking forward to this 2019 year

and wish you all, again, best wishes!

             Paige Melton
