Ladies and Gentlemen,
Thank you for stopping in, I’d like to introduce and welcome you to the
Skiffytown League of Heroes. In today’s age of electronic gee whiz and
faster ways to do things, life at the speed of light as it were, everything
seems to change but one, and that is peoples desire to get together and lend
a helping hand.
The League began as individuals striving to make a difference in their
communities, doing what they could, to leave the world a better place than
they found it, all the while doing it in their own unique way. In a world of
six billion people, unique becomes a very hard thing to do, and amazingly,
we think we’ve found a way to do it. Well, over time we all connected and
began lifelong friendships and it appeared at the time, the fun was just
beginning.
Now, I would like to state right here that the team of individuals wasn’t so
individual after all, we all share a passion for comic books, science
fiction and fantasy, to the point of writing stories, art, and attending
conventions as our favorite characters. The turning point was when the
opportunity came to create our own heroes and take them to the next level;
we all jumped at the chance. A whole new world had opened up for us as
individuals.
Meeting each other over time, we found a camaraderie that felt comfortable,
as we began to get to know each other; we found an almost family like
relationship growing with each passing day.
As time went on, we found ourselves wanting to do more. When we attended our
first convention together as a group, we did just that, we came from across
the country and we visited a children’s hospital, and that visit opened up
our eyes, and our hearts. Some of us knew it would go beyond just that one
visit, but truthfully, we didn’t see it coming in the manner that it did,
but that’s a story for another time.
From that one visit we grew in our activities, we grew in our writing, our
art, and our passion. Our next convention we jumped at the chance to work a
charity drive, and we began to take every chance we could to help out,
whether it was in our community or someone else’s. We even created our own
coloring book to give kids, as well as a convention panel helping kids
imagine their own superheroes, all free to any child wanting it.
Since the beginning, we have worked to give back to our community and help
others to reach new heights, we have now created an organization that will
help us to do, we hope, even greater things for those in need, across the
country. Our focus is helping, and sharing, especially to the kids, they are
our future, they are our legacy.
We welcome anyone with a heart for kids, a passion to do the right things,
and the selflessness that comes from caring more about others than yourself.
Thank you,
DCsGuardian,
President
Skiffytown League of Heroes
