Sorry that we did not have time to speak at the Convention. Welcome to fiery spirits - we have to admit that the name originates in Sweden! I was so impressed by Sweden's appreciation of the special people who make things happen in communities and so we translated the name into English! Anyway, I hope that you find the site useful.
