Today's Icebreaker
What do you like most about Wintreath?

For me, it's the opportunity to build and lead something that makes a difference in people's lives...I know we're not exactly curing cancer or anything huge, but I love that this is a place where people come to share who they are, make friends, and have fun. Over the years I've had people tell me how being in Wintreath helped them come out of their shell, or overcome negative feelings from traumatic events that happened in their lives, or explored themselves more fully than they could have otherwise, and it always makes me intensely proud when I hear those stories. Even more people consider it an online home, where their friends are and where they can be themselves, and that makes me so happy, too. I think it's one reason that running Wintreath has never grown old for me...to me, it's just as exciting as it was on the first day, and I guess that's one reason I love to put so much work and effort into it.

These days at least - A nice, chill, organized community that I can always come back to, chill at, contribute to.

I think the reason I keep coming back is that the community is laid back and honestly this is the one NS community I've ever felt comfortable and relaxed in

Aside from what the others have said, I've been here long enough to be comfortable being a little more personal.
