Rather than RACE from the water, we have collectively chosen to FACE toward the water… and pit our Will Over Water for the third straight year. Displayed in this video are just a few of the faces of the thousands of faceless and nameless volunteers who have readied the City of Fargo against the 2011 rising waters of the mighty Red River.
Citizens of Fargo and all area volunteers, whether you were shown in this video or not, please know that your sacrifice and selflessness will not go unappreciated. For all of us in the Fargo-Moorhead area, THANK YOU.
About Lee Hoedl
Believing in the power of presence in a child's life, Lee Hoedl left his fifteen-year career as a university administrator and educator to become a "residential education specialist" - a stay-at-home father for the Hoedl triplets born in 2003.
In between family responsibilities, Lee finds time to remain an avid cyclist, a triathlete/marathoner in training, photographer, freelance website developer and blues enthusiast/guitarist. And when the time permits, Lee rejuvenates by high altitude climbing to such locales as Mt. Whitney and Mt. Rainier, backpacking across such vistas as Yosemite National Park and the Grand Canyon, playing guitar and just spending time on the family room floor with his children and wife Di.
Lee presently and blissfully resides in the heartland of America with his wife Di and children Leo, Emily, Hannah and Nicholas, and finds the source of his inspiration through them.
