It is difficult to find anything more inspiring than a motivational speech by a general. For those of you who attended the Opening General Session last October at Congress, you may have had the opportunity to hear the voice of General Tommy Franks, as he spoke on behalf of the Foundation in a promotional video supported by Musco Lighting. For those of you who missed this video, or were not able to grab a CD copy, we are pleased to announce that the National Recreation and Park Foundation has gone viral and can now be found on the infamous YouTube.com. Just go to www. youtube.com and type in "National Recreation and Park Foundation" in the search category. This will take you to the Foundation's YouTube location, where we would like eventually to have a library of video resources on the importance of the parks and recreation movement, and the legacy that you have the opportunity to leave for it.
