From the Desk of Rosemarie Dunn...

Hi there, see the Dunn possy Big up Salt Marsh and put the Little Dist in a de paper in a positive light. It was a good feeling to be in Salt Marsh in a different environment, providing healthcare service to the people in and around Salt Marsh. HCI conducted our health fair on Friday Jan 25. The group consisted of medical and dental volunteers. We serviced more than 300 people. HCI was sponsored by Lion's Club, Mr Linden James played a vital role in having us at the school.
In additon, the newly formed CLINTON S. DUNN COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT CORP., GREGORY C. DUNN, CEO, unvieled a brand new school sign donated by the corporation. This beautiful sign was designed by our cousin, Collin Earle. CSDCDC and HCI donated four computers, library books, composition note books, pens, pencils, erasers, pencil sharpeners. All students, including infant schools will receive note pooks, etc. Dr Ozzie and Lloyd paid us a visit and we showed them off to HCI volunteers. It was a very proud moment for Greg, Juliet and myself to be in Salt Marsh sharing our time and talent. We were pleasantly surprised by a visit from Shamir Brown, Davis Penn, a homegrown reporter from The Western Mirror. He interviewed us and den mi and Gregory si we photo in a di papa! Juliet name mentioned in a di papa to.
Mass Clinton, Miss Jane and Uncle Mann mus a beam wid pride now. Click here for the article. Well, all being said, I am happy to see the positive feed back for CSDCDC. Keep up the momentum, together, great positive things can happen in Little Salt Marsh.
