As my year as a Knight Creative Communities Institute (KCCI) community catalyst draws to a close, I’ve been thinking about what the experience has meant to me and the promise it holds for the 2017 class.
How can you help Tallahassee preserve and develop this beautiful, historic property? That’s simple: Let your city and county commissioners and state representatives know how much you support this project.
By late 2017, Tallahassee will build on the oversized letter trend by welcoming a life-size monument of the #IHeartTally hashtag to the area of South Monroe Street — otherwise known as SoMo — located between the Capitol, FSU and FAMU.
“I’m challenging county commissioner Nick Maddox, my first cousin, even though he played tailback for the FSU Seminoles. I'm known as the athletic cousin. So I predict I'm going to beat him in the amazing race,” City Commissioner Scott Maddox said.
The community is getting ready for the annual Amazing Capitol Race. It's a race that takes teams of two throughout the capitol city, completing challenges hosted by local businesses and organizations.
The KCCI volunteer team, dubbed Community Catalysts, has been gearing its projects toward a central theme of “See Tallahassee.” Its newest project is designed to greet visitors as they fly into Tallahassee and allows them to do just that.
KCCI is pleased to have been selected as the non-profit partner for the month of April by Hearth and Soul. Thank you for your support and all that you do for KCCI.
