Who is the Volunteer of the Year
for 2008?
Paul Schroeder has been volunteering with Y.O.U.T.H. of Wilson County since 2007. When he and Demetric were first matched, Paul took Demetric his own motorcycle helmet on their first meeting. Since that time, they have ridden many of hours and in several Charity events in Paul's Christian Motorcyle Group and been in the Motorcycle Magazine Behind Barz. Demetric and Paul have spent many of hours doing things such as building Demetric a basketball goal, dog pen and hanging out. Demetric wrote a heartfelt letter about his first year with Paul, which was read at the Volunteer Banquet. Demetric states that: "I have been without my father for eight years. That's why being with him was such a joy and I treasary every moment with him just like a jewel."
