All I got to say is...I WAS JAMMIN!!!! lol jk (for the elderly...that would refer to the phrases "laugh out loud" and "just kidding"). On a serious note, I know first hand that alot of work went into putting this program together and as a participant in this program, I really enjoyed myself. I think it's just a great opportunity to serve my community and a great feeling knowing that every year I can come to IWU and celebrate the birth and hardwork of a man as great as my man...MARTIN!!!!!

I was so happy and excited to participate in this year's mlk celebration for the first time... IT WAS SO MUCH FUN!I am so thankful for everyone who helped put this togeher because it was great. I am sure it was stressful at times but you all pulled it off! I can not wait to see what else is in store for this weekend. I am glad that we can come together black, white, or whatever race and praise and honor a great man that got us to where we are today. Thank you for making that possible.
