Courage:   We believe that the community can only grow and prosper if we dare to be bold in our visions, stand by our convictions and be fearless in our quest for a community rich in experience.
     
Service:   We commit ourselves to be stewards of the community, the highest level of caring.
     
Commitment:   We value a passion for service and believe responsibility and duty is imperative to enrich the community.
