A hearty "THANK YOU" to Sunshine Dixon and the artists who displayed their work at United Way and City Hall. It was a heart-felt celebration of the love and dedication bring to the city, the love they hold for one another and the hope and aspirations that still remain alive. The media was outstanding - the vocals breathtaking and the dance a true conviction of beauty, movement and faith. And we are so blessed to have the smooth tantalizing sounds of IN TOUCH.

Work from the Bottoms Up Group is to be commended. It would be great to hear and see more from our new residents and musicians. I would also like to thank Sho Dozono for spearheading the the flight of mercy tour to New Orleans in April - such an undertaking to a very worthwhile case.
