Resilience – it takes practice

​At one time, Mower Refreshed was merely an idea. A what if, a maybe. Could it be sustainable? Would the community support it? We couldn’t know without trying, so the seed for a grass roots initiative was planted. It has grown and flourished in our community over the years, cultivated and nurtured by the efforts of many, but most memorably by the face of one.

​You’ve seen her photo on the back page of the newsletter, speaking at Chamber events, and participating in many other community efforts. Sandy Anderson has inspired people from all walks of life to participate – to get engaged, challenging
them to be present in their personal lives, workplace and in the community.

In January 2018, Sandy stepped away from Mower Refreshed to start a new direction in her career. She will be missed, those shoes feeling impossibly too large to fill, but we wish her all the success and happiness in her new endeavor. 

With her departure, we look inward to channel our own resilience. It takes practice and a conscious effort to be resilient in times of change. In the years of Sandy’s leadership and growth of Mower Refreshed initiatives, she empowered a legacy of leaders that are equipped to continue the work.
While our faces may be different, our goal is still the same – bring opportunities to the community, to engage, equip and empower health and wellness.
