The Diversity Task Force of the Fox Valley

Wow… it has been awhile since I’ve updated.  In the interim, I have joined The Diversity Task Force (TDTF).  TDTF is a group of people who want to promote diversity in our community through school presentations.

One of the members has this great quote by William Sloane Coffin, Jr. quotes which I think is so true.  “Diversity may be the hardest thing for a society to live with, and perhaps the most dangerous thing for a society to be without.

I know I have personally learned a lot from all of the diversity I’ve come across.  It is actually the diverse group of talented individuals that help out every year with the zombie march that make it so successful.  It is also the diversity of all the participants that make it a blast.   Every year I am humbled that you all show up dressed like zombies to walk through Iowa City.  It is this diversity that really, really makes all of this work. So I thank you all.

Next year’s march is going to be even better thanks to all of you.  I’ve got someone who is going to work on the after party and make it awesome.  I can say that next year’s march will end at The Mill!  So we’ll be able to eat WHILE enjoying the after party music and contests.
