Inver Grove Heights Days Fireworks

Back when my disease was much more stable, I used to do a variety of volunteer work. One to keep myself busy and two so that even though I was not able to maintain substantial gainful employment, I was still able to be a productive member of society.

As some of my volunteer work I was President of the all volunteer, not-for-profit Inver Grove Heights Days committee from 1999 to 2007. Additionally as part of this work I obtained my Festival and Event Management Certification through the University of Minnesota.

Being President also lead me to being a City of Inver Grove Heights Parks Commissioner for 6 year. Most of that at the same time I was President of Inver Grove Heights Days. This video is of the Fireworks display the last year I was President.

I keep my next does on the outside from my coffee pot. e.g. When I take my morning medications I rep...
