Keep the Goal in View
Skylark staff members attended the Wichita Falls annual Dr. Martin Luther King Prayer and Scholarship Breakfast on Saturday January 19, 2008. This year's theme was "Keep the Goal in View." With more than 800 people in attendance, the event was a huge success. The tireless efforts of Wichita Falls City Council Member Dorothy Roberts-Burns were clearly in evidence. Councilor Burns brought together a diverse group of Wichitans and raised substantial funds for future scholarships. Key note speaker, U.S. District Judge Vicki Miles-LaGrange, read a personal letter to Dr. King filled with the memories of the past, the realities of the present and the hopes of the future. Skylark was proud to play a small role in this important event.
