"On Friday, February 12th, officials from the PB County Office of Community Revitalization (OCR) and neighborhood leaders from around the County came to Lake Worth to see the many projects our Neighborhood Associations have accomplished with REAP grants over the last few years. OCR organized the tour and the NAPC was honored to serve as tour guide when the Trolley hit our city limits."

     "If one theme emerged in telling the stories of all these projects, it was that none of these wonderful projects were completed in isolation. Partnerships and collaboration among the Neighborhoods, with our friends in so many non-profits and civic organizations, with our business community, our community of artists, PBSO [District 14], Palm Beach County Fire Rescue, SWA, other County agencies and with our City government were clearly evident in everything they saw. It was this aspect that we believe made the most positive impression with our guests. Over and over the question was asked—How did we do it? How did so many people and so many agencies come together for so many volunteer projects?
     It doesn’t happen by magic and it didn’t happen overnight. One successful project led to another."

"On behalf of the Lake Worth Neighborhood Association Presidents Council, Thank You to Palm Beach County Office of Community Revitalization and to all of our guests who came on the tour. Well Done Lake Worth!"
