How have you taken the lead in your community?

Hi all of you average people out there! Welcome to the Taking The Lead blog site! This is my first blog ever, and my mission for this blog is to learn about how other people in the world take the lead in their communities, cities, towns, states, and countries! It could be anything from starting a new business, to initiating a library program for children, to leading a clean up crew around your neighborhood! I would really love to hear as many interesting stories as I can, so please join the blog and post your stories!
