15th Anniversary Poem


A poem to share from Carnegie Center volunteer and friend, Sue McKaig. This poem was written in honor of the center's 15th anniversary celebrated in 2007. Here's Sue pinning a corsage on Jan Isenhour, our Executive Director, on the night of our celebration.

Hungry learner's flock~
