Cornwall joined people from all over the world as our own project came together today at The Cornwall Public Library and The Cornwall Regional Art Gallery. Even MPP Jim Brownell got into the act. Each journey in life begins with a single footstep. I’m so proud of the many footsteps taken today by Cornwall. Kudos to all of the organizers (yes you too Susan Lilley) and people who helped make this happen in Cornwall on such short notice. Next year and all the “Actions” taken during this year can only help all of us reach the goal of 350.
