*By Kimm Baersch Development Director, Step Up on Second Everyone lays claim to Route 66 Editor:*

Let me just say “thank you” for the front page photo in the March 14 edition of SMDP (“Donor steps up”). It was a wonderful ground-breaking event — and the cover of the local paper (in color!!!!) made it even more joyous. Thank you.
