He clearly demonstrates this with his ability to take complex subject matter and communicate it effectively.

Thanks to Everyone

October 31, 2010

There are so many people who helped make Trunk or Treat what it was this year. The weather was beautiful and thanks to cotton candy, hot dogs, nachos, donations, time, and energy inside various trunks we had at least 200 people come through our parking lot. Trunk or Treat is an outreach that makes ECC a special place to be.

The festive and fun atmosphere was awesome. Thanks again.
