If you asked me what Plainview is all about, I would tell you that it is in the hands & hearts of its people. EVERY day, every day, I witness goodness flow throughout our community.
On Monday, a teacher discovered a student whose family had found themselves in crisis mode, no power, water and the gas was set to be turned off. This teacher found out the needed information and kicked it out of the ballpark to help this family, particularly, her student. This student is finding success in education, and by Plainview, she will succeed!!! Thank you to all the hands and hearts that helped make a difference for this young person and ultimately their family!
Do you remember that the Plainview Police Department had a raffle to raise funds to help buy Christmas for the Rainbow Room/CPS kids? Well, they did, and we won the Yeti cooler. It is Christmas, and our police department does way more than most realize for our community so, why not give back? It was fun to reverse the gift.
And the winner was...Dispatcher Borchardt!!! Congratulations!!! And, thank you to all of the Plainview Police Department staff for keeping the dots connected there!
Each year, the Elk's Lodge 1175, Plainview's other finest, partners with the Plainview Police Department and other Plainview hands & hearts to purchase, wrap, and deliver Christmas gifts and meal to the Rainbow Room/CPS children. It is a love-filled process!
Surely, we are blessed, and these angels are being watched over by the angels of Plainview! There are many other stories, just like these. Merry Christmas, Plainview elves, and angels!!!
