When you go paddling the first dozen strokes are the most difficult until you gain some momentum. After that, paddling becomes easier as you settle into a stroke rhythm.

The same is true with the brand new FPTA organization. We need lots of help to get this organization successfully off the launch pad. Since we are a volunteer organization, we are looking for "volunteer" hours from other helpers.
