Certificate of Appreciation

I've never wanted special recognition. Even in high school, I declined a nomination to National Honor Society.

 

But, the volunteer dinner, held at the zoo on Friday night, was different. A banquet hall filled with people who have made contributions, mostly quietly and behind the scenes, is about community, not self-promotion. Community is something I value.

 

The volunteer coordinator made this certificate on her computer. It says, "Camera Connoisseur." A token, reminding me that community is happening. I can get into that.

 

HSS!
