          WE RECENTLY CELEBRATED OUR TOP VOLUNTEERS OF 
2024 AT THE FRISCO ROUGHRIDERS GAME I AM A   VERY BIG BELIEVER IN IS THAT COMMUNITY HELPING 
COMMUNITY IS AN INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT THING TO   OUR CITY THEY'RE CRITICAL FOR WHAT THEY DO 
THEY'RE LIKE THE BACKBONE OF WHAT WE DO IT'S   HOW PEOPLE SHOW THAT THEY CARE AND THAT THEY'RE 
INVESTED AND THAT THEY'RE ACTUALLY CHOOSING TO   GIVE BACK TO THE COMMUNITY SO YOU GUYS ARE 
THE EXAMPLES OF THAT THANK YOU SO MUCH HE   WAS PRIMARILY A LIBRARY VOLUNTEER AND HE GAVE 69 
HOURS IT WAS AN INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCE BRINGING   TOGETHER THE VOLUNTEERS AND THE CITY'S VOLUNTEER 
COORDINATORS THAT DEVELOP THESE MEANINGFUL ROLES   AND PROGRAMS THAT GIVE THE VOLUNTEERS AN 
OPPORTUNITY TO GIVE BACK TO THEIR COMMUNITY   IT'S BEEN A A FUN YEAR I'VE BEEN THE BOOKSHOP 
MANAGER OVER AT THE LIBRARY FOR A YEAR YOU KNOW   VOLUNTEER AT THE LIBRARY VOLUNTEER AT SAFETY TOWN 
VOLUNTEER AS ONE OF OUR CITIZENS ON PATROL THOSE   ARE FANTASTIC OPPORTUNITIES THE CITY HAS ALL 
KINDS OF THINGS THAT YOU CAN DO YOU CAN KIND   OF DO WHATEVER YOU WANT TO DO AT YOUR OWN PACE 
THAT WILLINGNESS TO GIVE OF YOURSELF AND GIVE   OF YOUR ENERGY IS INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT AND 
IT HELPS US TO KEEP A VERY STRONG TIGHT-KNIT   COMMUNITY THAT IS SO IMPORTANT AND IT IS PART OF 
FRISCO'S CULTURE WHAT'S WONDERFUL IS WHEN WE SEE   THEM ENGAGED WORKING AS TEAMS OR AS INDIVIDUALS ON 
PROJECTS THAT ARE NEAR AND DEAR TO THEIR HEART   THINGS THAT THEY ARE PASSIONATE ABOUT IN THE 
CITY OF FRISCO IT GIVES ME AN OUTLET TO LEARN   SOMETHING DIFFERENT AND TO INVOLVE MYSELF INTO 
SOMETHING THAT I HAD NEVER BEEN EXPOSED TO BEFORE   IT IS INCREDIBLE THAT OUR VOLUNTEERS FOR 
THE CITY OF FRISCO HAVE NOW GIVEN BACK TO   THE CITY OVER $1 MILLION WORTH OF TIME 
AND ENERGY THAT IS SUCH AN INCREDIBLE FEAT AND   WITH ALL OF THE DIFFERENT OPPORTUNITIES THAT 
THERE ARE TO CONTINUE TO GET INVOLVED IN   THE CITY AND PARTICIPATE I'M EXCITED TO 
SEE THAT NUMBER GROW EVEN FURTHER NEXT YEAR
