After nine events, we were feeling pretty confident about our final display. We heard nothing but great things about the Ohio State University chapter in the days leading up to the event. We were also excited to have Naomi and Kate from the national office join us at the display. All things considered, the day was on its way to be a great final event.

We pulled into the OSU campus and found two volunteers waiting on a corner to direct us to the display. As we rounded the side road, we found the full group of volunteers and a fantastic welcome sign for Karen and ourselves.

Just as we were hoping, the display went as smoothly as we could have asked. The campus was absolutely packed during the display which allowed us to reach a huge number of people with our message. It’s strange, but time seems to speed up and slow down during these things. Both the trip itself and the individual events seem to simultaneously fly by and stretch out. Before we knew it, our last display was finished.

The day flew by, but the local chapter had something special in store for us at the end. After the display, we found ourselves enjoying delicious food and engaging company at an “end of the tour” banquet. We couldn’t have asked for a warmer and more satisfying way to end our last display.
