Testimonials
This program was awesome. I definitely feel like Fort Dodge has WAY more to offer than I thought.
This was an amazing program & truly allowed us to see the beauty in Fort Dodge when we hear daily remarks that talk bad about Fort Dodge. I’m proud to say that I live in Fort Dodge after this program.
I feel like all of the sessions really enlightened me about the great things Fort Dodge has to offer. I definitely view our community better now.
