And in the beginning...

 Today we share with you our Howdy Neighbors creation myth...

...except that in this case, it is no myth, but instead a remarkable TRUE story about how a young boy developed a very special superpower: the power to transform his community by a simple wave of his hand.

Well, that might be a bit of an exaggeration! But it is true that Jason brings out the best in almost everyone he meets. This is because he loves to share his enthusiasm and excitement for life. He does this best and most obviously by waving at people and cars as they pass by on the street. It has led to an outpouring of love that has strengthened our community and helped support a number of important local charities.

But what's most remarkable is that everyone that Jason meets has their own special powers. So many of you have shared your love and enthusiasm for life just as readily as Jason has. From your acts of kindness, the stories you have shared, and the bonds of friendship you have inspired the world and strengthened our community immeasurably.

Here's how it all began...
