The historic Mabel Tainter Center for the Arts in Menomonie, Wisconsin, was the scene for a very special keynote address given by Judy Foust on Sunday evening, March 10th. With over 300 people in attendance, she paid tribute to area National Honor Society students in a humorous and motivational manner.
The theme for the evening?s celebration was ?the postage stamp??representing the far-flung journeys these stellar young people were anticipating in their futures.
In her PowerPoint presentation??A Letter?Just for YOU??inspired by U.S. postage stamps throughout history, Judy wove a web from the dream-maker Walt Disney to major American poet Langston Hughes?s myriad of ?dream poems? to a 1948 stamp (worth three cents!) saluting America?s Youth. Sharing a stamp of Celebration, Judy charged all the young adults in the audience to find daily joy and purpose in their lives and to remain open to possibilities.
Closing with strong encouragement to include service and a compassionate spirit, Judy delivered a perfect visual letter to the students reminding them not to be ?licked? by life?s challenges, but rather to leave their positive ?stamps? on their community, their state, their country, and their world!
