picking up trash or volunteering, it makes a big difference. It helps the whole community. What makes a good leader? It’s important to not only put yourself out there and network with others, but also to listen. Listening is a huge part of being effective and making real connections. What makes Buckeye unique? The people. Everyone here is so friendly. It used to feel like a small town where everyone knew each other, and even though we’re growing, I think we’re moving in the right direction with all the development and community involvement.
