Today we had the opportunity to help clear the road for the GWU Groundbreaking ceremony – literally. As a family we went to the GWU property and watched the sunrise over the La Plata Mountains in southeastern Colorado. We and the Brooks family then began clearing sticks and other debris from the road leading to the site of the first building. It was truly inspiring to see the conceptual images of the campus near the location of the future buildings. Dr Brooks had us close our eyes during the approach to the site of the first building and then see the artist rendering for the first time all together. It was powerful.
I am excited to be a part of the groundbreaking tour crew next Friday and Saturday. Manike, the GWU Event Coordinator, tells us that we are anticipating 400 people to attend the groundbreaking ceremony. It will be a very busy and fun weekend.
