I express a deep and sincere thank you to the many, many staff members who helped in a myriad of ways toward what culminated as a VERY successful KABAM Fest! The helpers were many, from Steering Committee members who began working on this year's event 11 months ago; to the various subcommittee members who have held numerous "in-between" meetings; to volunteers who helped set-up and take-down; to staff who re-arranged their work schedules in order to be at the park all day Saturday; to staff who covered the libraries so that staff could be at the park all day Saturday; to staff who came as visitors/patrons of the festival. The list of individuals, groups, branches/divisions, etc. would be too long to try and list them all here...but please know that I know, more than ever, that this truly is a team effort (along with numerous individuals, groups, businesses and organizations in the community) that makes it happen.
By the way, the Saturday event in the park had over 2,100 visitors - by far a new record for KABAM. I don't yet know how many hundreds of additional kids and adults were directly impacted by author visits and presentations before Saturday. Not to mention the about 100 or so that attended the Poetry Slam in downtown Kingman Thursday evening.
Again, thank you all!!!
Sincerely,
Robert
